sounds like a frustrating time... how much was the buy in and what was the payoff...? 21 out of 552 should have put you into the money...eh? I play a lot of neighborhood tournaments, VFWs, a few casino cash games. regards

Sometimes you just aren't meant to win. I busted out in 4th place on a Full Tilt tournament last night. That's the worst place to finish, as you are one spot away from making money. But I had pocket tens, which is pretty powerful in 4-handed play. A guy who'd been raising all night with unmatched overcards went all in and I called. Sure enough, he had ace/jack. I was a slight favorite. Ace came on the flop and jack on the river. No tens. C'est la guerre.
