Level 33

Michael Casson: A♠2♠ 
Arian Kashani: K♣Q♦
Casson held a slight lead going into the runout and the flop of 5♣J♦9♥ kept him in the lead, but did give Kashani a gutshot straight draw. The 6♠ turn brought Casson one step closer to a double-up, but the 10♣ river completed Kashani's straight, sending Casson out in fifth.
