Rodriguez Gives Up More to Alekberovas
Samuel Rodriguez has found an early day 5 nemesis in Anaras Alekberovas, and has seen his lead cut even further.
Alekberovas opened to 40,000 from early position and called when Rodriguez three-bet to 95,000 from the cut-off. Both players checked the flop and this invited Alekberovas to lead for 85,000 and 225,000 on the turn and river.
The final board read 
and Rodriguez called both bets. Alekberovas quickly opened his 
for a flopped full house and scooped as Rodriguez mucked.
