Greenstein Last of the PokerStars Team Pros

Barry Greenstein

Like many of the event that aren't no limit, this one was loaded with notable players. However, as we get closer and closer to our final table, Barry Greenstein is the last of the PokerStars Team Pros left in this event. He's currently sitting with a less-than-average stack of chips, but we're sure he plans on changing that for the better.

Slowly But Surely for Williams

David Williams, one of our overnight big stacks, has had a pretty good day so far.

After strolling in late and casually asking us whether we knew where his seat was, he settled in well and has been slowly but surely increasing his stack.

Just now we witnessed him raising from the button and picking up a caller in the shape of the big blind to see a {j-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{k-Clubs} flop. The big blind check-called the bet from Williams, and check-called again on the {2-Hearts} turn. Come the {5-Hearts} river he checked again, and this time when Williams bet, the big blind folded {a-}{10-} up.

Williams is at 47,000.

Juanda Down

Reduced to just 300 chips (not a typo), John Juanda called all in and found himself up against both blinds.

The flop came down {5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{6-Hearts}. "Yessss!" said Juanda, but he wasn't fooling anyone. The big blind bet, the small blind folded, and they were on their backs.

Juanda: {q-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Big blind: {6-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

Turn: {3-Diamonds}

River: {k-Spades}

Juanda = busto.

Greenstein Loses Last Hand Before Break

Barry Greenstein was in middle position when he raised, getting calls from the small and big blinds. When the flop came {3-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{2-Spades}, both blinds checked and Greenstein bet, getting a call from only the big blind.

The turn was the {10-Diamonds} and the big blind check-called Greenstein before they both checked the {j-Clubs} on the turn.

Greenstein tabled {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}, which was no good against his opponent's {9-Diamonds}{a-Spades}.
