Greenblatt With a Straight and Piles
Level 8
: 400/800, 100 ante
Alex Greenblatt bet 8,000 from the big blind on an 
board, and a player on the button thought briefly and called. Greenblatt tabled 
for a pair that turned into a straight, and he looks to have one of the more formidable stacks in the room at the moment.
However, he'll have some stiff competition soon as fellow American pro Kevin Eyster just grabbed a seat at that table. Eyster has a long history of success both live and online, and he made a deep run into the last few tables here last year, finishing 16th for $17,555.
