So my title is in reference to the action I got on my bustout hand from a tourney that NBA and I played in. It was a crazy maniacal tournament this past weekend at a local casino in AZ. It was a 10k guaranteed with $60buy-in and 2 optional $30 rebuys which you could do at anytime regardless of stack size. That was news to me but I liked the idea. For some reason I decided to both my rebuys before the tourney started....which is bad strategy imo. I started with 15k in chips. I'll save you boring hands like my 99 being cracked by 22 on a 8 high flop or other crazy play by complete donkeys. I have never seen such ridiculous, horrible play in my life. Anyways onto the hand that crippled me.
I am UTG and have 2 black aces (NBA's favorite hand). Blinds at 200/400 (they started at 100/200 w/30min levels). I have 13.5k in chips. I limp with my aces knowing I will get action. 2nd position limps (horrific player). 4th position limps (decent player who thought he was better than he was)5th position than raises to 2k. She was the tightest woman in the world and this was only her 2nd hand she had played the whole tournament. She played the previous hand and showed QQ. I immediately put her on KK or AK or maybe QQ again. I thought aces were unlikely since I have 2 of them. Then 6th position goes all infor 3400 total. 7 position (SB) instantly calls the 3400. BB folds and I proceed to go all in raising another 10k. 2nd position insta calls for over 8k, 4th position hims and haws for a minute stating he has a hand that is strong and can beat a lot of things with the right flop(WTF) but finally folds. The tight woman in seat 5 actually takes about another minute to decide and then calls. The SB thinks for another minute and finally folds after I tell her she doesn't need to call. I didn't want more people in the hand. We turn over the hands. I have aces, 2nd position has Q4 of clubs (no joke), the tight lady has KK and the all in lady had 66. The guy who took forever to decide said he had QJ and the lady who I talked down from calling had 44.
Flop comes 753 rainbow. Turn a 8 and river a K...I lose the biggest pot of the tourney up to that point and am left with 300 in chips. I am all in on the next hand with J2 (I was in the BB). 2 guys are in the hand. Flop comes J high and another bets and other guy folds. Guy has AK. Of course I get greensteined with an ''Ace on the River'' and I bust out. Congrats to NBA who lasted longer but eventually the donks caught up to him. I probably won't play as I wasn't a fan of the play (even though really juicy) nor the environment. I like other casinos I have played at in the area better.
