A player from early position raised to 500 and Jesse Sylvia three-bet to 1,375 from middle position. He was called by the player to his left and the initial raiser. The flop came {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} and the action was checked to Sylvia who bet 2,500. The player to his left raised to 7,500 and the player in early position folded. Sylvia called and they were off to the turn.

Both players checked when the {2-Spades} fell on the turn and the {9-Spades} completed the board. Sylvia bet 10,000 and his opponent called rather quickly. Sylvia tabled {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} and his opponent showed him {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}. Sylvia picked up a nice pot early on to get his day started the right way.
