Out. Around 400th. Turns out they are paying a whopping 180.
I'm not even upset, because I seriously couldn't have gotten my money in any better then I did. After folding every hand for an orbit and a half, I get down to 10 BBs (10,000 chips). An early position guy raises to 2500, the cut off calls, and I push in from the button with AKs. The BB (the big stack) thinks and then calls, the original raiser thinks and then folds, the cut off thinks and then pushes (
) giving me some protection, and then the big stack thinks some more. At this point, I obviously want him to fold, because I can't get any more money in the pot. There was already, let's see - about 35,000 in the pot that I could win, so I'd rather only have to beat one guy than two. He finally calls, and I'm thrilled to see them turn over JJ (CO) and TT (BB). All I need is an Ace or a King - and they didn't even have any spades, I don't think! The flop comes three small red cards, the turn is another small blank, and I'm down to 6 outs on the river. It's a Q, and I'm out.
Damn... if I hit that, I'd be right back in this thing - still beow average, but not by much. Oh well.... It just wasn't meant to be.
GL Wes. Take it down!
