On the second draw, Greenstein drew one while his two opponents remained bet. The action then checked to the button, who tossed in a bet. Greenstein called and Leonard raised, seeing both the button and Greenstein calling for one more bet.

Greenstein drew one card on the final draw while the other two remained pat. Greenstein then checked, Leonard bet, and the button called before Greenstein got out of the way.

Leonard showed 7x6x4x3x2x for the second nuts, and scooped a huge pot when the button's cards hit the muck.
