Choi Takes a Bite Out of Kaverman

Level 21 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Byron Kaverman couldn't complete his draw.
Byron Kaverman couldn't complete his draw.

Bryan Choi opened for 23,000 in the hijack, and Byron Kaverman raised to 66,000 from the small blind. Choi made the call, and the two saw a flop of {4-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}.

Kaverman continuation-bet 63,000, and Choi raised to 126,000.

"All in," Kaverman said very quietly. He repeated himself when the dealer asked him to clarify. Choi called right away.

Choi: {3-Hearts}{3-Clubs}
Kaverman: {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}

Both players had flopped big, but Kaverman needed to improve to catch Choi's set. Neither the {j-Hearts} nor the {k-Spades} did it for him, and He lost more than half of his remaining chips to Choi.
