Cover to Cover

Young gun Teddy Peterson has just become the newest owner of Ace on the River, Barry Greenstein's book.

And he didn't even have to buy it.

A player in early position opened the action with a raise, and Greenstein moved all in over the top for about 10,000 total. Sitting next to him, Peterson squeezed out {A-?} {A-?} and made the call, having both men covered. The original raiser folded, and Greenstein turned over his {10-?} {10-?}.

A third {A-?} on the flop spelled the end for Greenstein. He signed a copy of his book, handed it to his opponent, and departed the room to a hearty round of applause.
