So how did you bust out?

[bingobongo]

end of day one,card dead after dinner for several hours,down to about 20BB. after having been folding for several rotations i decide to make a steal from the button,even before seeing my hand,on a purely situational basis. as i hoped it folded to me and i raised to 3BB only BB calling Flop AJx rainbow. i have J5o. he checks i Cbet 3BB he calls.turn J. he checks i check. river brick.he checks i bet like 4BB he raises i push.
he had AA.
ship me home...

Day 2, 300/600 w/75 ante. UTG(100K+) raises to 2200, I(36K) make it 6700 with QQ, folds back to him and tanks for a minute and he shoves. I sit there for like 2 minutes and I'm waiting for a clock to be called on me. I close my eyes and my hands hit the chips and there were in the middle. He had AA. I almost folded. Almost.

slow rolling you with the AA... must have been raised by a nanny or something and hated his mother.

straight loses to rivered flush twice leaving me with 4500 just before the dinner break.

100/200 with AA in SB. One aggro mp limper, I raise to 600, mp calls. Flop 2A3r, check (looking to c/r his likely bet), check. Turn T bet 1K, mp pushes (has me more than covered) and I call. I flip over my set of Aces, he sighs and turns over 75o and proceeds to river a 4 for the straight.

Final Table Heads Up: I hold JcKc in the small blind and limp heads up against Johnny Chan. Flop comes Qc10c9c. I bet the pot, Chan thinks for a second and flat calls. I move all in on the turn despite a small pot with a ton of chips left for both of us (I have 1 more chip than him (don't ask how that happened it just did). Chan smiles wearing his weird ass designer shirt and says, I think your on a draw. I smile and say "you call and it'll be all over baby" Chan calls and flips over the Ac7c for the nut flush.

Good stories so far guys, sounds like we took some sick beats, but I'm sure everyone enjoyed the experience.

Key hand: I have ~25K in the 250/500/50 level. Folded to me, I raise to $1700 in CO w/ QQ. BB only caller. Flop AQ8. He checks, I bet 3K, he checkraises to I don't remember how much, I push, he calls with no-[censored]-way AA. I cover him by 2000 chips.

Bust hand: 300/600/75 level, I push A2o in the CO with 10K (M=6). SB calls with AK and holds.

Don't like the A2o push for 17xBB even with the ante.

Obviously I've thought about it a great deal and I don't like busting that way. I did do some math in the hotel room afterward and with calling ranges of AK-AT, 66+, which was definitely too loose for at least two of the three behind me, it's +EV ~400-500 chips. I still question it though. At the table, I nearly folded, and walking out I felt like a [censored].

I'd been push-or-fold for about an hour and a half since the QQQ hand (had just recently won a flip to get my head above water); I think that may have affected my psychology.

Day 3, money bubble gone. Stack pretty unhealthy, around 30k. Blinds $2,400/$1,200, ante $300. I get the red QQ UTG+2. Raise it to $8,000, folded to the button, who calls. Flop xxx, I check, button pushes, I call and get shown AA. I actually have him covered by about three chips, which go in the pot next hand. My JTo is live, but one opponent's AK turns into trips.

I showed up a half hour late. Folded ten four off my first hand. My second hand I busted. Fun times.

I posted the hand on my blog (link in profile) in a post called 'Results' if anybody wants to checkout the hand. The comments section had a lot of debate on the merits of the hand, I still like my play but meh. Next year should be fun.

Took a look at your blog. That's the way to go out, as a solid favorite on the second hand. I think you had 20 outs.
