Chip Leader Tian Cracks Kings

Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Colm Chan opened 16,000 under the gun and only Mengshi Tian who is currently chip leading made the call from the big blind.
The dealer spread a flop of J?10?2?, and Tian check-called a bet of 15,000.
The J? paired on the turn and both players tapped the table to see the 7? fall on the river.
Tian checked for a final time as Chan pushed a stack of blues for a bet of 65,000, and Tian instantly called without hesitation. Chan tabled K?K?, which was no good against Tian's J?4?.
