Tough break
Well congrats on your back-from-the-dead tourney finish.
The 5/10 NL game was harsh. When reading this is I was thinking that 600 seems low for a buy-in to a game of the size (In order to get my mind around playing for those stakes, I have to translate it to .50/$1, for which I'd want to sit with 100 dollars rather than 50. Or, in your case, $1000 dollars instead of $500!) But it doesn't seem like it would have made a difference, just would have ended up costing you more. It boggles my mind that you get guys calling $90 bets (9x the big blind!) pre-flop with J8.
Regardless, what a hell of a trip.
