I was so cold, not getting anything ... so, I figured the best (only?) thing I could do is go all-in on the hand that put all_aces in ... as it turns out, I was going for the $50 bounty, but because 2 others were in, the added effect was getting me back in the tourney, as I more than tripled up. Â
Pocket aces gave me some more chips, and then flopping a set with pockets Queens doubled me up, and helped me to 17th overall, meaning I grabbed a few more $$.
All in all, a good night for me.
I would be interested in hearing if people thought my "strategy" was ok, once my chip stack dwindled to the level before the all in hand above?
Great tournament.....ran so smoothly...no flaming....one of the best I have ever been in!!!! Proud of my fourth place finish....wish it was first...next time!!!

I was going to ask doc at the break if he wanted to have a last longer bet so I could get a shirt from him, but I had nothing to offer in exchange.
