Flush Draw Turned Two Pair for Greenstein

There was 1,050 in the middle and the flop had come all hearts — {7-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{5-Hearts} — when Barry Greenstein led from the small blind with a bet of 750. His opponent sitting one seat over in the big blind then raised to 1,700, and Greenstein called. The turn was the {J-Clubs}, and this time Greenstein checked, his opponent bet 2,975, and Greenstein called.

The river brought the {A-Diamonds} and another check from Greenstein. This time his opponent fired 5,000, and Greenstein called again. The big blind turned over {7-Spades}{5-Spades} for two pair, but Greenstein had {A-Hearts}{J-Spades} for a better two pair and he took the pot.
