Justin Smith is now the proud owner of Barry Greenstein's hit book Ace on the River. Oh, you have one too, you say? Well I'd be willing to bet yours isn't signed by the author.

Green With Envy
Justin "Boosted J" Smith raised under the gun, and Barry Greenstein gave him action from the big blind. Smith drew two and bet, while Greenstein pulled three cards and made the call.
On the second round, Smith stood pat, and Greenstein still needed to draw two and call another bet. On the final draw, Greenstein picked one more card before the betting went check-check.
Greenstein showed 9-7-5-3-2, but Smith had made the winning eighty-seven on his first draw.
Smith - 15,500
Greenstein - 4,700 -
