$1,000 + $90 NL
Tony Lee is on "holiday" from the UK (Brighton) to specifically play in the Borgata Winter Poker Open, unfortunately his parting gift is a bad beat on the bubble.
"I'm very happy to lose the last 24 hours of my life to have the second best hand in poker get cracked by ace-jack," says Lee with a hint of sarcasm.
Lee pushes his last 24k all-in with KK and is called by Santo Lisanti (Glenshaw, PA) who has AJ. As the dealer spreads the flop, Lee lets out a painful "oh" as there's an ace in the window.
"I wanted a call, but what are you going to do?" he laments while heading to the rail.
The final 36 players are guaranteed a minimum of $1,956 as they play for the top prize of nearly $88,000.
