Ace on the River

After a player from early position made it 1,800 action folded around to Barry Grenstein in late position who opted to move all in for 8,100. When it was back on the player in early position he quickly made the call and cards were flipped.

Greenstein: {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}
Opponent: {K-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

Greenstein was in a great spot and basically needed to avoid a king in order to double up. The dealer then flattened out five cards in the middle and they came out {10-Spades}{7-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds} and with an ace on the river Greenstein was able to double up.
