Greenstein Hunts Ninth Cash

Level 1 : 25/50, 0 ante

Three-time WSOP bracelet winner Barry Greenstein is among those who've taken their seat early on Day 1. The "Robin Hood of Poker" has been on a tear this series and already racked up eight (!) cashes in the previous weeks. His latest money finish was a deep run in Event #44: $1,500 Pot Limit Omaha Hi-Lo, where he finished 14th for $9,513.

Greenstein wasted no time in putting his stack to work today and three-bet two hands twice in a row. In the first hand, he raised a player from 150 to 450 and took it down with a continuation bet on a {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop.

In the hand directly after, a player opened from early position to 200, Greenstein three-bet to 600 in late position and the same player from the previous hand cold-called. The initial raiser four-bet to 2,050 and got both Greenstein and the third player out of the way. Greenstein sits around the starting stack in his hunt for his ninth cash of the series.
