Whew, I played like a donkey and made the money. Just busted out 39th which was good for a $50 profit. On one hand, it's better than losing 1k but on another I'd have made more washing floors at Mcdonald's. I ended up at Hass's table and watched him win a huge pot with AK vs JK to put him at about 150k in chips before I left.

I had a horrible run of cards the first few rounds...big starting hands that couldn't seem to hit flops. The whole tournament I seemed to be a medium or short stack and could never quite break through.

I busted out after pushing all-in UTG with A5. I had pushed all-in the hand before with an M of 2.5 and picked up the blinds and antes which put my M at 3.5 I figured the hand was strong enough to push in that spot, but maybe it was a bit of a loose push. If the payouts had been a little flatter, I may not have made that move, opting to try and move into the next bracket instead, but it was so top-heavy that I felt it was the right move.
