Busted out 10 minutes in when I hit a set of kings on the turn, I had KQ, villain had AK.
Had I been fully alert I maybe, MAYBE, could have seen what he had. Earlier he smooth called with aces pre-flop, and only re-popped it with a raise from the blinds. On the hand above, there was no re-raise to my standard raise preflop, but he was behind me. He re-raised my continuation bet on the flop, and I called it. When the trips came on the turn, I was going broke. Even with full knowledge of his holdings, which in hind-sight reeked of AK, I think I still did right in a tournament such as ours with quick and slippery blinds, and lots of LAG donks.
I feel okay about it, I actually prefer it to grinding for two hours and bubbling.
I'm hoping I get permission from the wife to indulge this Sunday night in a HORSE tournament at HPC, should be a good time, full report to follow.
