Vincent Procopio's Bad Beat

Vincent Procopio shared the story behind his bustout hand, and it was painful. His opponent raised to about 7,000, Procopio reraised to 21,000, and his opponent was thinking about laying it down. Procopio said, "You don't have to fold, but if you're playing, you might as well push, because all the chips are going in eventually."

His opponent moved all in with A-K offsuit, and Procopio called with {A-Spades}{K-Spades}. It was a likely chop situation, but two diamonds flopped, and two more on the turn and the river gave Procopio's opponent a flush.

Just like that, Procopio's WPT World Championship came to an end.
