Aside from 17th-place prize money, Brian Tate also won a bad beat story to tell his grandkids about. Pre-flop, Tate made it 20,000 to go from the cutoff and was called by Guido Lunardini in the big blind.

The flop came {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

{8-Clubs}

{3-Hearts}

and Lunardini open-shoved all in, having Tate covered. Tate made the call and turned over pocket aces; Lunardini tabled {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

for two pair.

The turn and river came {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

,

{2-Spades}

and Lunardini's two pair would hold, eliminating Tate from the tournament in 17th place, worth $4,858 in prize money.
