Bye, Barry

Barry Greenstein
Barry Greenstein

Barry Greenstein was still the short stack after doubling up, and he got his chips in again quickly with {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. He was dominated by Ayaz Mahmood's {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}, but it wasn't an easy win for Mahmood. In a made-for-tv elimination, The {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop gave Greenstein an open-ender. With the {a-Clubs} turn, Mahmood hit top pair but Barry added a clubs to his outs. But he bricked them all with the {6-Spades} on the river.

Reigning WSOP Heads-Up Champion Mahmood is the last member of the Hearts and Clubs Brackets to move on to tonight's Round of 16, where he will play reigning WSOP Champion Jonathan Duhamel.
