Lucky Turn for Greene

Level 20 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Kevin Greene opened in the hijack to 60,000 and it was only called by the big blind.

The flop revealed {j-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{a-Clubs} and the big blind quickly check-raised all in for a stack around 140,000 left after Greene bet another 60,000. Greene took a minute and opted to call.

"I flopped the nuts" said Green's opponent, showing {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for a pair of aces and the nut flush draw while Greene tabled {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}. However, a {q-Clubs} appeared on the turn, giving a set of queens to Greene, and the {9-Clubs} completed the board on the river to eliminate his opponent from the tournament.
