The player

Over the past 15 years Barry Greenstein has become one of the best tournament and cash game players in the world. Two WSOP bracelets and two WPT titles have helped him accumulate more than $5m in tournament winnings, a large chunk of which he has donated to charity. Although he famously lost a $180,000 pot against Sam Farha when his Aces were cracked by Kings in the first season of High Stakes Poker, Greenstein is a fearsome cash game player who is one of the central figures of the Big Game in Vegas. Greenstein is sponsored by PokerStars.com.
