Barry Back in Business

[user140525]

Barry Greenstein had only a few chips left on the dinner break, but he managed to double up when he spiked a set of kings with {a-Clubs} {k-Clubs} {k-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} to quarter an opponent with {a-Hearts} {a-Spades} {q-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} on a {k-Spades} {8-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} board. After than hand, he was up to a massive 1,400 chips.

A few hands later, he was all in again. Greenstein limped, and Daniel Negreanu raised. Both the big blind and Greenstein called to see an {a-Spades} {q-Hearts} {j-Spades} flop. The big blind bet out, Barry called, and so did Negreanu. The turn was the {10-Spades} , ending the possibility of a low half, and the big blind fired again. Greenstein made another call, but Negreanu gave up. After the {4-Spades} on the river, the big blind bet a third time, and Greenstein moved all in for an extra 225 chips. His opponent called and showed {a-Diamonds} {j-Hearts} {k-Spades} {5-Diamonds} for Broadway. Barry's {8-Spades} {5-Clubs} {3-Spades} {2-Diamonds} gave him a raggy flush, but that was enough to scoop and more than double up to workable 3,850.
