Hand #18: Jesse James

Level 34 : 150,000/300,000, 40,000 ante

Robert Salaburu had the button. Greg Merson raised to 700,000 from the hijack seat, Jesse Sylvia called on his direct left, and Michael Esposito defended the big blind.

The flop came {6-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{10-Spades}, and the action checked to Sylvia, who fired 1.35 million. The two players folded, and the chip leader added to his stack.
