50+10 live tournament, ~40 players,down to 11, top 8 or so get paid. My table is six handed and i am an average stack of ~4500. In my table sits also the overall chip leader with about ~15000 chips and he had been bullying around pretty much lately.
Blinds are 150/300, i'm just right of the button, everyone folds to me and i see Ac8c in the hole.
I had been pretty quiet lately and was thinking that this could be a great place for blinds steal and made it 900 to go,everyone else folds, Chip leader calls from the bb.
Flop:
8s7d2s
Villain bets 500
I make it to 2000
Villain hesitates a while and calls.
Turn:
Js
Villain puts all-in
I fold. /images/graemlins/frown.gif
So i ended up with just above 1000 with blinds coming up and got busted few rounds later with KQ vs 22...sad ending to a nice tourney...
How bad was the preflop raise? I havent been as mad about that than not pushing on the flop, would that have made more sense? Im lost, help me!
Thanks...
