Commentary for Ketubot 188:3

ומי מצית מוקמת ליה לרב כר' אלעזר והאמר רב יהודה אמר רב הלכה כרבי אלעזר בגיטין כי אמריתה קמיה דשמואל אמר אף בשטרות מכלל דרב סבר בשטרות לא אלא מחוורתא רב כר"מ ושמואל כרבי אלעזר

But can you really say that Rav follows the view of R. Elazar? But did not R. Judah say in the name of Rav, “The halakhah is in agreement with R. Elazar in matters of divorce.” And when I said this in front of Shmuel he said: “Also in the case of other deeds.” This implies that Rav holds that [the halakhah does not follow R. Elazar] in case of other deeds. Rather it seems clear that Rav holds like R. Meir and Shmuel holds like R. Elazar.
