October Niner Sends Alekberovas to the Rail
Jesse Sylvia opened for 5,000 under the gun and received a call from Dan Smith in middle position. Anaras Alekberovas then three-bet to 25,000 from the button, leaving just 3,900 behind, and Sylvia made the call. Smith got out of the way and it was heads-up action to the 
flop. Sylvia wasted little time in leading out for 5,000 and Alekberovas called off.

Sylvia:   |
Alekberovas:   |
Neither the 
turn nor 
river helped the young Lithuanian, and he was eliminated just shy of the first break.
