"The Bear" Makes a Boat

Omaha-8:

Barry Greenstein raised from middle position and Shawn Sheikhan made it three bets to go from the small blind. Greenstein called and they went heads up to a flop of {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} {6-Clubs}.

Sheikhan bet and Greenstein called. The turn came the {J-Diamonds} and Sheikhan fired again. This time Greenstein raised and Sheikhan smooth-called. The river was the {2-Clubs} and Sheikhan check-called Greenstein's bet.

Greenstein showed {A-Spades} {J-Spades} {J-Clubs} {4-Hearts} and Sheikhan mucked. As he folded Sheikhan gave Greenstein a surprised look and said, "You f*ckin' chased that Barry? G*d damn..." Greenstein seemed relatively unfazed as he stacked the chips.
