Not an Ace, but "On the River" Works Just Fine for Barry G

Level 5 : 250/500, 0 ante

Barry Greenstein

After a raise to 500 before the flop, Barry Greenstein called, as did another player for a three-way flop of {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{8-Spades}.

The initial raiser led out for a bet, and Greenstein fired out a raise to fold the third player. The bettor flatted, however, and the turn came {7-Diamonds}.

After a check to him, Greenstein fired away with another bet on fourth street, and once again his opponent came along.

On the {k-Clubs} river the action repeated, and Greenstein rolled over the {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} for the winner. His frustrated opponent winced when he saw the bad news, and flashed an {A-} while angrily mucking his hand. Despite this win, Greenstein is still short-stacked, and he will need to keep making moves if he hopes to advance to the second day of play.
