yeah I definitely had to puke after this hand, especially b/c these 27 person events pay highly towards the top 3, busting in 4th to this was the largest kick to the nuts that i've received in a couple of hours.

okay i feel better now. but I really should have won that tournament.

Oh on another note I bubbled in a $45+5 33 person tournament live in 7th place preflop all-in with KK and run into AA, that one also sucked.

I had almost the exact thing happen to me last night except my Q Heart Q Diamond went down to a 4-flush of clubs on the board and 2 Club 2 Diamond . I wish I'd been drunk when that happened. I'd at least not felt that kick to the gut quite so much.

Nice playing with you the other night too, btw. I ended up doubling up in that room. I really do think I play better when I'm smashed.
