The Bear Climbs

[user66118]
[user66118]
An unknown player opened to 1,000 under the gun, and Barry Greenstein and one other player came along for a three-handed flop. It rolled out {K-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {J-Spades}, and the raiser continued out with a bet of 2,500. Greenstein then raised to 7,000, and the third player made the overcall. The initial aggressor got the message and ducked out of the way, but Greenstein wasn't going anywhere; he made the call.

Fourth street brought the {2-Spades} and another leading bet from Greenstein. He made it 15,000, his opponent moved all in over the top, and The Bear called the extra few chips to put him at risk.

Showdown
Greenstein: {K-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}
Opponent: {K-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds}

It was quite the gift for Greenstein as his opponent was pretty much drawing dead to three outs. The {J-Clubs} on the river was indeed not a queen, and Greenstein is the beneficiary of another big pile of chips. He's all the way up to 97,000 now and appears to be the chip leader at this point.
