My final hand is below. Guy with huge chip lead who busted me with the KJo reraise from CO of my QQ raise from HJ somehow managed to bust out 3rd. He lost three fairly big hands.

It was KJs and you were CO he was button.

Either way a sick beat though. I've played 3 100rs and haven't cashed in any of them.

Was the player that raised UTG with JTo to 4x playing very loose or what made you push 88 over a UTG raise to 4x?

WayneCoal was either on serious tilt or just had to go somewhere, his play at the end of the final table bubble was just bizarre to say the least...

Nice cash betgo, you played well, was fun to watch until that KJ debacle...

It seemed like WayneCoal was trying to be aggressive when everyone was tight. He went from one of the short stacks to tournament leader. I didn't think his 5xBB open raises were a great idea. I wasn't at all happy with having him directly to my left and tournament leader on the final table bubble. But then he became a short stack and then was gone.

He kept raising when all the other short stacks were folding. His call of my reraise with JTo was pretty strange, but not that terrible since I was the chip leader. That built him a big stack and he became the leader playing aggressively after that. Then he played more aggressively with the chip lead.

I just thought that he wasn't that strong a player, but he knew to play aggressively when everyone else was playing tight.

I just explained he was a maniac. He raised UTG 6-handed and I was the tournament leader in the BB. Also, 4xBB was a small open raise for him.

I found this hand where I busted out karecon early in the tournament amusing. Of course the mid position open limp with 10xBB was strange, which is why I didn't raise preflop.
