Soheil, So Low

We caught up with Soheil Shamseddin betting out 300 from the small blind position on a {j-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} flop, and his one opponent called from the button.

They saw a {10-Clubs} turn and Shamseddin just moved all in to cover his opponent, who made a swift call. The cards were turned over.

Button gentleman: {q-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} for a pair of tens
Shamseddin: trailing with {q-Clubs} {9-Spades} for an open-ended straight draw

River: a harmless {10-Clubs}

The gentleman on the button doubled to a very healthy 9,800 or so; the daring Shamseddin meanwhile dropped to 2,500.
