Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
John McDonald raised to 10,000 in early position before John Botticello three-bet to 45,000 in middle position. McDonald then moved all in, and Botticello snap-called.
John Botticello: K♥K♣ 
John McDonald: A♠K♠
Botticello remained in the lead on the 8♠3♦3♥ flop, while the 4♠ came on the turn to give McDonald a flush draw. The river was the J♠, and McDonald made his flush to win the pot.
"Come on. How do you shove with that?" Botticello fumed on his way to the rail. Meanwhile, the dealer counted down the stacks and determined that Botticello actually had McDonald covered.
The table called Botticello back, but then a tournament official came by to confirm the counts and it was determined that McDonald had Botticello's 145,000 covered by 5,000.
