Isra or Is He Not?

Roland Isra limped in under the gun, and Michael Binger raised to two bets from the cutoff seat. Dana Kellstrom called from the small blind, Brian Meinders did the same from the big, and Isra called the extra bet to see a four-way flop.
It came 
, and Isra led right out with a bet. Binger folded, Kellstrom called, and Meinders snuck in a check-raise. Isra promptly reraised, Kellstrom folded, Meinders re-reraised, and Isra called all in for the remainder of his stack. Got that? The short version is that Isra was at risk, and the cards were on their backs:
Isra: 
(top pair, bottom kicker)
Meinders: 
(set of threes)
Isra was drawing to two running cards, and the 
on the turn was one of them, a good scary sweat with one to come. A meaningless 
filled out the board, though, the last card Isra will see today. Unless, of course, he takes his payout slip to the blackjack tables.
