Did Jesus immediately go to Paradise/heaven after his crucifixion?

Some question if Jesus immediately went to Paradise/Heaven after His crucifixion, or if He first went to hell. Psalm 16:10 foretold of Christ being in hell. For you will not leave my soul in hell, neither will you suffer your Holy One to see corruption. Acts 2:31 confirms that Christ went to hell.
