Brian Tate raised in the cutoff, James Tilton three-bet from the small blind, and Tate called. Both players changed one card on the first draw. Tilton then bet, Tate raised, and Tilton called after some thought.
Tilton still took one on the second draw, while Tate kept the cards he had. Tilton check-called, drew one, and check-called again after Tate had patted and bet.
Tate tabled 8♦5♠3♥A♣ for an eight-badugi, and Tilton quickly mucked his cards in defeat.
