Alekberovas Doubles Through Pobal
Mikalai Pobal raised to 275,000 from the button with 
only to have Anaras Alekberovas three-bet all in for 1.285 million from the small blind. Pobal made the call and it was off to the races.
The 
flop was no help to the Lithuanian, though it did give hime a gut-shot straight draw. The 
turn was of no consequence, but Alekberovas pulled a page from Barry Greenstein's book, Ace on the River, and hit the 
on the river for the double.
