Default \"Did you address that to donkey?\"

It was only a matter of time before someone posted this. Glad I'm first!

Barry Greenstein raises to $60,000 from very early position and Devin Porter reraises $200,000 more. Greenstein immediately moves all in, and Porter calls. Greenstein shows A-K, and Porter shows A-J. Greenstein has Porter in bad shape as we head to the flop. The flop comes Jh-6c-4h and the tables have turned, now Greenstein needs a king to stay alive. The turn brings the 4s, and the river the 3c, and Greenstein is eliminated on a bad beat. Barry Greenstein earns $30,000 (which will undoubtedly be given to charity) for his efforts.


Barry Greenstein keeps a copy of his book, "Ace on the River," with him during tournaments lately. Whenever he is eliminated, he signs that copy for the player that busted him, with a brief description of the final hand. (If he wins a tournament, he signs the book for the runner-up.)


As Greenstein hands this book to Devin Porter, someone in the crowd shouts, "Did you address that to donkey?"
