Follow-up comments
Many responses have pointed out how the play in this hand sucked. It shows Fancy Play Syndrome. It shows a leak in my play. I agree with most of these statements. While I don't play like this most of the time, once in a while I find myself playing like this. It is seldom enough that it doesn't cost me much, but it is a weakness and of course it does cost me everytime I play this way. I didn't play it this way for advertising purposes (as some have suggested its the only reason to play this way), so that's not an excuse. Admitting a weakness is the first step to correcting it; thus my confession with this post. I know to play better than this.
