Someone at the table calls a clock, the floorman comes over, but before the countdown begins he mucks AcKc face up.

Great read, but man is live different. Online, no one EVER folds AK preflop. 7 people could have gone all in in front of him, and AK would still call [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].

guy was VERY tight/passive. He had his blinds whittled away for over an hour. He looked like he was getting a bit impatient waiting for a hand. I still believe (even knowing now he had AK) the guy was reluctant to raise more that 3XBB, as proven by his little tirade at the dealer. Plus he was repeatedly saying he "wasn't a gambler," "didn't like coinflips," "just trying to get as far as possible," "doing this for his family," etc.

So I thought my read was solid.

By the way...I am almost finished with Day 2 and it will be up shortly.

Thanks for all the compliments and congrats guys...I really appreciate it. It is fun writing this out and being able to share, because it helps me re-live the experience, which was without a doubt one of the most exciting of my life.
