Did you think he would fold to a re-raise on the flop? If so, why? Curious as to your thinking.

Ugh, I'm out. And yes, I hate this tourny. down early after a doubled up a short stack with JJ to his AA, and I probably could have gotten away from it. I got up to over 4K after a nice river value bet against stevesbets, then on the next hand I got it in on a flop of JTx with AA vs stevesbets KQ. A on the turn. Bleh.

Yes, I thought that might give him a chance to get away from KK-AA (which is what I put him on).

I was trying to stack him with a non-spade/non-queen turn. If the turn comes an offsuit duece, I checkraise allin and he's trapped. However the Q of spades comes off which is the ultimate scare card for him. I should have led the turn. Oh well.

2455 at the break

jacks flopped top set with no action, otherwise uneventful

Doubled up in the first 10 minutes, then lost a tough one after I got the money in as a 4-1 favorite on the flop, 3720 at the break.

Down to 700 15 minutes in when I had TT vs QQ in a button/blind battle with all undercards on the board. Then I got lucky, doubled with KK, made a straight then tripled up with a set of 4's against flush draw and top pair. Since then I've had AA and trips again.

I hate this tourney too. This is one of the rare times ive survived the first hour in the 500. I've got 1500 which is more than Ive had most of the time.

1st break, 3055

[Roman]

picking up some nice hands, up to 4k at break

[davidross]

After limping for 100 UTG with AJs I get 4 callers and then the BB goes all-in for his last 1200. I think I have him beat but what if someone behind me plays too? I push, everyone gets out of the way and he has KJ...YES!!! 4 bricks, then the last slow river at Stars is a KKKKK

Instead of top 10 I'm back down to 8K...I hate this game.
