Musumeci Clubbed by the Kaverman

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Byron Kaverman Just Busted a Dangerous Opponent in Amanda Musumeci

Amanda Musumeci's last hand of the tournament just went down, and interestingly enough, when she and Byron Kaverman tabled their cards on the {2-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{8-Hearts} flop, neither player could produce a pair.

According to Kaverman, the two took a flop after he flatted a 23,000 open from Musumeci, and when the first three cards hit the table he checked it her way.

Musumeci decided to fire a small feeler bet, only to see Kaverman check-raise. This prompted an all-in shove from Musumeci and a quick call from Kaverman.

Showdown:

Musumeci: {Q-}{j-}
Kaverman: {k-Hearts}{3-Hearts}

Musumeci was on the move with just queen-high and a gutshot straight draw, while Kaverman was hoping to hit a flush with his king-high heart draw. Fortunately for him, the draw was not even needed, and Kaverman simply needed to hold up to notch the knockout.

The turn ({k-Clubs}) paired Kaverman and the river ({j-Clubs}) missed both players, leaving Musumeci with no pair, no hand and no chips.
