If f(z) = ∑ aₖzⁿₖ is an entire function (with aₖ ≠ 0 for all k) such that nₖ / k → ∞, is it true that f assumes every value infinitely often?

If f(z) = ∑ aₖzⁿₖ is an entire function (with aₖ ≠ 0 for all k) such that ∑ 1 / nₖ < ∞, then f assumes every value infinitely often. This theorem is proved in [Bi28].
