Really beating myself up (Qx suited????)

One important point that did not get mentioned (or I missed) is that with 5 left, on the bubble, a steal is likely from any position. It's very possible that A4o is the best hand.

UTG steal? "calling" a steal? I suppose...i see all the reasons why i should have done it (especially that i WOULD have tripled up)

Let's say that my strategy had worked...b/c someone almost did bust after the hand...would it then have been a decent strategy?


and above i mentioned my ATo UTG raise hitting QQ....so my play was good and just unlucky? I felt stupid for raising UTG with ATo...i was hoping the shortstack would push with A9o-
