The pain after busting out came from the fact that I had gotten that far, gotten my chips in with the nuts, and would have been in good shape had I won that pot.

No doubt, this is extremely painful. Also, the points you made about maybe not being able to run as well luckwise in the next few WSOP events, are true also. It's a cruel game. I'm not saying you should feel good about busting like that. But you made your best effort and got far.

BTW colson, you mentioned you were sitting at the table with Hachem for a while. How did you find him as a player? Were you surprised when he took it down? Did you play any pots with him?

One of the better reports I've read. Tough break - I'd get me a bottle for the night if I busted out like that.

Awesome report, I'll begrudgingly admit, even though you're a Husky. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Great write up, reading the bust out hand just makes me feel ill.

I open with black KK on the button for 150, unknown BB defends (another late arriver). Flop is J86 two clubs. BB checks, I bet 200, he check raises to 450, I call. Turn is 6o, BB checks, I bet 700, he c/r’s again to 1600, I call. River is J, he leads for 2100, I call. He doesn’t show. I’m up to 13.5K.

Looks like a busted draw since he CR'd the turn again and bet out on the river, but I'm curious what hands you put BB on during the action since his line is kind of odd.

My decision to call on the river was made fairly quickly. I hardly pondered it even though it was a big bet. I didn't even try to really put him on some specific hand, I could just feel it was a bluff. When he plays it that strangely, with little check raises, I figure he has quads or nothing (missed draw).
