Shinzaki Hurting

Michael Shinzaki lost a huge chunk of his stack to Justin Tazelaar in a hand that extended about a minute into the break. We picked up the action on the turn, where Shinzaki, sitting in the big blind, bet 5,075 on a board of {5-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {K-Hearts}. Tazelaar called.

The river was the {10-Diamonds}. Shinzaki moved all in, a bet effectively equal to Tazelaar's remaining 24,075 chips. Tazelaar tanked for two minutes, holding his head in his hands, before calling.

"You win," said Shinzaki. Tazelaar waited for Shinzaki to open his hand. Finally (and reluctantly) Shinzaki showed a total airball, {J-Clubs} {6-Spades}. Tazelaar collected the pot with two pair, kings and nines {K-Clubs} {9-Clubs}. He moved to about 60,000 in chips while Shinzaki si down to 12,000.
