Bad Day for Barry

Barry Greenstein has not had a hugely promising start. Down to around 4,000 and apparently snoozing between hands, he was one of three players to call a 300 raise preflop. With a lack of action on the flop or turn, he tried it on for 1,000 on the river of the {9-Hearts} {J-Spades} {Q-Clubs} {10-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} board, but folded instantly when his neighbor Jan Arne Bjerke made it 4,000. Greenstein now down to around 2,200 and Bjerke up to a much happier 12,000 as their table breaks. Greenstein has now headed over to this room's new Table Of Doom to join fellow doom-meisters Willie Tann and Mark Teltscher.
