Greenstein Receives a Boost . . . Twice

Justin "Boosted J" Smith was in the small blind while Barry Greenstein was in the big. The latter was all in for his last 80,000 holding {J-Hearts}{9-Hearts} against the {Q-Clubs}{10-Clubs} of Smith. While he was behind, the {3-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{A-Clubs} flop was kind to Greenstein, giving him a flush draw. The {5-Hearts} turn gave him that flush and assured his double.

A few hands later, Greenstein raised from the hijack only to have Daniel Idema reraise from the button. Greenstein called all in and was in a dominating position.

Greenstein: {A-Spades}{J-Clubs}
Idema: {K-Spades}{J-Spades}

The board ran out a clean {3-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{3-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Spades} and Greenstein double yet again.
