Ace on the Turn?

False Alarm: Berry Greenstein thought he was busting, but he doubled up.

We found Barry Greenstein all in and at risk again Matthew Gallin on the {J-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{2-Spades} flop.

Gallin: {J-Spades}{5-Hearts}
Greenstein: {A-Spades}{8-Diamonds}

Greenstein, who famously signs a copy of his book, ‘Ace on the River’, to give to the opponent who busts him in each tournament, stood up from his chair and was about to sign and give Gallin his copy.

The turn was the {A-Diamonds} though and Greenstein got the ace that he needed, albeit on the turn to storm into the lead. The river came the {6-Diamonds} to double Greenstein up who sat back down with his book.
