First place PStars nightly hundred grand...

[BNelley24]

I won the nightly hundred grand for 27K on the 9th. It was finally the bank roll builder that I needed.

Last Monday I decided to play it again. I was chip leader with around 40 people left. I slowly lost my lead and was around 4th with 20 people left. I made some stupid plays with my stack which have hurt my game since then (can't get them out of my head). This particular play will haunt me for a while.

I have AKo.s middle position. UTG raises to around 15K. He is sitting with around 70K, I'm sitting with around 215K (1st at the time). Blinds are around 2-4K. That leaves him with around 55K. I decide to push [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img].... He calls with JJ. I do hit the Ace on the turn, but he rivers the J. If I win that hand I 2X 2nd place and cruise into the final table. With middle position deep in a tournament as chip leader do you just let this one slide? Thanks guys for any advice.

I made another stupid play with A3. I raised, got one caller. Flop A44, I push, he calls with AQ. Why did I push? Tilt? I have no idea. I was then forced to try to win a race A9 vs. QQ, and did not. I came in 17th netting around 1000. What a sad ending to a night which could have made me 60k in 2 weeks.

Next time in this situation, you should call preflop, check behind him on the flop, make a small enough bet on the turn so he'll just call, then call his all in on the river.

If the fact that this guy had these results in one of the hardest tournaments online doesn't prove "lol donkaments" to be infallibly true, I don't know what would.

Sad thing is that it's not "one of the hardest tournaments online" because of you.
