It sucks it had to end that way though: JJ vs. QQ vs. AJ, but it was a good game, and $1K sure does feel good.

excellent. Was planning to rail but it was too late for me.
Your goal seems to be very reachable now!

Thanks all.
I felt really good and I'm pretty sure that had I won that hand JJ vs. QQ, I would've went far if not all the way. It was just one unlucky hand that I had to go against a stronger pair.
I just hate how it happened though. The guy, UTG pushes all-in. However he was doing that with any two cards since we had gotten in the money. With JJ, I decided to make the call (being UTG+1). Another guy, on the cut-off goes all-in for a few chips more, I had no choice but to call (1K in a 45-50K pot). UTG had AJ, and CO had QQ. Tough spot.

if you were me, you would have hit the jack on the turn, and rivered a joker giving you 4 jacks and the QQ would have had trips, and the AJ would have had trips
