This is the standard "squeeze play" places enormous pressure on the original raiser. It should also be noted, that both players that were in the pot seemed good enough to noticed that I had been playing extremely tight. There were roughly 45 people left in the tournament at this point, and this pot brought me from "slightly below avg", to fairly healthy.

Roughly 30 left when this very interesting hand devloped. I had decided not to raise PF, because at this stage of the tournament, with such large blinds it is not uncommon to run into people limping with AA to trap the desperate short stacks. A-10 is obviously too powerful to fold in this spot, and any reasonable raise would come dangerously close to committing me to this pot. I rationalized and just called. When the flop came down K-5-2, I decided that this would be an excellent flop to bluff at. I bet out 8k, and was called. After we checked the turn, I had decided my opponent would fold his small pair (fairly safe assumption) to a large bet. I made a large bet that looked like I would be priced in to call any sort of raise, telegraphing to my opponent that I wasn't fooling around. He folded fairly quickly.

Here's a glimpse of a delayed steal. I decided to check my bb after the sb limped...but the flop was absolutely perfect for me.My opponent would've raised preflop with A-x, and he would not come out betting with 4-x. (from what I had seen him betting out with 4-x was extremely unlikely)
Then..bad stuff started happening.

Overall I'm satisfied with my play. The A-Q hand somewhat bothers me still, but then again winning the AK hand sends $145k pot my way.
I appreciate any comments. Thanks.
