Musumeci Clubbed by the Kaverman
Amanda Musumeci's last hand of the tournament just went down, and interestingly enough, when she and Byron Kaverman tabled their cards on the ![]()
![]()
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: ![]()
![]()
Kaverman: ![]()
![]()
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 (
) paired Kaverman and the river (
) missed both players, leaving Musumeci with no pair, no hand and no chips.
