Bubble Boy

Oh so close today, this morning i decided i was gonna be solid

i started Full Tilt $2 turbo and pokerstars $6 2 table turbo, not much happening on full tilt but on pokerstars i got off to a good start flopping a str8

not much to say played tight on full tilt but just didnt get any cards, on stars i managed to get a few more chips and gradually build a bit but no great progress

on full tilt i then start getting some cards make some good hands, make a few good bluffs and we down to last 4 and pretty even

om stars all was going well til we got down to 12 i was in top 5 and i got A7 orsomething late position so i raised as no one had entered yet, get one caller behind me, flop comes 77Q rainbow!! i bet bout half pot get called, turn not much but 2 of a suit now so i bet bout 700 which was nearly pots size i think? he calls again, river is the 3rd suit and now i got feeling he got the flush, i bet 600 he raises i call and yup he got flush on river, i should have been more aggressive earlier

anyway with that i was pretty low on chips, final table time i am mid position with 56off, as soon as there are 2 callers i figure there enough in pot for me to gamble on it and try tripple up, so i push all in folded back to blinds who both call as do the 2 callers, flop cant remember but when the 2nd guys bets big they all fold apart from one guy who now goes all in himself

the better has QQ, other guy A10 ish, turn and river..... i draw a str8 on river!!!!!

saved and i am back in game, amazingly at this point the table starts talking bout me being a superdonk!!! one hand when i desperate and they all write me off, well if they under estimate me it fine by me

it fairly tight with 8 left, i hit a few flops and get up a bit, then my dream hand
i get AA in late they an aggressive chip leader in BB who been raising a lot, so i limp he raises as i expect and i call
flop nothing to worrying he bets i reraise min and he comes back all in... just like i thought he would, i call and and now chip leader

back to work lunch over, will continue this later

ok so i back

so i was chip leader though not by much, things went round and round lots of stealing not many flops, cant remember much more though we got down to 5 with 4 paid, now i av stack pushes here and there see chips moving from one to other of us then with 1010 i push and get called by bigger stack he has K10hearts
flop: 10!!! xx one heart
turn heart
river heart
and my trips are no good!!

so close

on full tilt i made it to bubble time again and got it in with AK or AJ, called by 9K or 9J all the way to turn i ahead, river... 9!! he hits his bottom card on river and i out on bubble again!!

oh well so near yet so far!!
