Poker Rio poker tournament, 3.00; 235 buy in:

I enter the 3.00 tournament, there were 1122 entries, when I got knocked out there was 270 people still playing, so I was around the 852 person to get knocked out, I ran deep in this tournament but not deep enough, got crippled by a crazy person playing a 10, 6 off suit, in the big blind, I was in the small with an ace queen,. She drew a six and I lost, now with less than 3 blinds I pushed on the button, no choice, had jack queen, 3 people called and I pushed, all got out but one, who had ace rag, and I lost to high card., that hurt to get so close and get crippled out by a person who played junk and got lucky. Next Saturday I will try again this will be my last try, till next year WSOP, or another event in Vegas. The way this happened I was in small blind and she was in big,. Maybe she thought it was a steal, never the less she got lucky with a hand that you would not defend with.,

I ran fairly deep the week before in the 6 o’clock, 185 buy in, as I posted, 707 entries, knocked out with 299 people still in, that put me, at about 408th person to be eliminated.
