"I Squeezed the Wrong Card!"

Level 2 : 75/150, 25 ante

Barry Greenstein opened the betting with a raise to 300 from under the gun. It folded to Justin Bonomo who called from the small blind. Michael Binger made it 1,400 to go and Greenstein quickly called. Bonomo got out of the way and the two were heads up to the draw.

Binger stood pat and Greenstein took one. Binger quickly tapped the table and Greenstein fired 3,400 into the middle. Binger looked pained by this bet and sat for over a minute pondering a call. At one point Binger picked up enough chips to call and threw them from one hand to another.

"Does it count if they're in the air?" Greenstein asked the dealer jokingly.

After this Binger threw his chips in for the call.

"Well, now I've gotta squeeze," said Greenstein.

"I thought it might be that," replied Binger.

Greenstein looked at his cards and announced a four across. Quickly after, however, he said "Oh, wait, I squeezed the wrong one!". The table burst into laughter and Greenstein went on to squeeze the correct card this time.

Greenstein showed {9-}{6-}{3-}{2-} to the table and then announced that he was holding a three-across. He showed the {7-Clubs} and Binger flung his hand into the muck.
