Barry Greenstein pushes all in and gets called from the small blind raiser. Greenstein has {j-Spades}{10-Spades} and his opponent has {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}. They see the flop of {j-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}. This put Greenstein in a tough place because he would have to catch runner-runner to beat his opponents flopped set.

The turn, the {8-Clubs}, giving Greenstein straight outs.

The river, the {q-Hearts} and Greenstein did it! He came from behind to bust his opponent with a runner-runner straight. He is smiling while stacking his healthy stack of 425,000.
