Too Many Outs for Kashani

Level 13 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Xiaosheng Zheng
Xiaosheng Zheng

With the board showing J34K and with roughly 140,000 in the middle, Arian Kashani bet 50,000 from the cutoff and was met by a shove by Xiaosheng Zheng on the button. The shove was for Kashani's remaining 120,000 and after pondering for a few minutes, he made the call to put himself at risk.

Arian Kashani: 65 All in
Xiaosheng Zheng: 1010

Zheng was ahead with pocket tens but Kashani had a huge combo-draw with one card to come. The 6 came on the river, which may have improved Kashani to a pair of sixes, but he was still behind to the tens of Zheng. Kashani headed to the rail, while Zheng became one of the biggest stacks in the room.
