Rookie Mistake

One player raised, and Barry Greenstein three-bet. Daniel Negreanu called, and the original raiser joined the fun. The flop fell {9-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{2-Clubs}, and the first player to act checked. Greenstein fired a bet, forcing Negreanu out, but the other player called. The turn was the {6-Diamonds}, and Greenstein flat called a bet. After the {7-Diamonds} on the river, he called again. Barry's opponent showed {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{2-Spades} for deuces full of nines without a low. Somewhat confused, Greenstein thought he'd lost the high half, and when he turned over his {a-Spades}{7-Spades}{7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}, he was surprised to be told that he'd scooped the pot with a low and sevens full of deuces. "How am I going to win this tournament?" Greenstein wondered aloud. Coffee, Bear, coffee.
