Funny sit-and-go experience

[ripdog]

I played a 6 person, $5+$1 sit-and-go today. Early on I was getting crappy cards, folding a lot, and raising the minimum with little pairs and AJo. I folded until it was three handed--the tourney paid two places. Then I get 9-6o and go to hit the auto-fold button, but the guy to my right gets in a $300 raise as I'm about to click the button. I had no chance--the chips were out in front of me before I knew what had happened. As I cursed myself for making the mistake, the flop came out--9 high. I doubled up to just over $2000 and went on to win. Luck is good. Unless it's bad, anyway.
