Default The big Fossilman hand of yesterday

Mike Matusow made a comment to Card Player about the hand that crippled Greg yesterday- I was wondering if it was as out-of-line a play as Mike made it out to be.

"some IDIOT loses his mind and tries his hardest to go broke and..I think that bothers me more than anything" AND "How bout throwin your hand away when you flop no pair and no draw, ever heard of doin that?"

I'm assuming Mike is referring to this hand:
" Ayhan Alsancak has the button in seat 5, Raymer raises, and Kanter calls. The flop comes 6c-5d-3h, and there's a bet and a call. The turn card is the 7h, Kanter bets $600,000, and the two players are quickly all in. Raymer shows pocket kings (Kd-Kh), and Kanter has Qh-Jh. Kanter has a flush draw, and needs to catch a heart to win the pot. The river card is the 2h, and Kanter makes his flush to double up through Greg Raymer."

Does anyone have more details on the preflop and flop betting, along with the turn back-and-forth? Because it's possible Greg was trying to steal on the flop. Could Kanter realistically represent the straight(s) here?
Any chance Fossilman is making a move on the turn, or reads Kanter as doing so (rather than a semi-bluff)?
