T (three of a kind, Fours) and WON 150,534 (+78,867 NET)This is an awkward spot for me. I posted this hand on 2+2 because I have no idea what line is right. The more I think about it, the more I think shoving preflop is the best idea. Anyway, this dropped me to 112k and 7th of 17. One orbit later, the following comes up.

T (a pair of Aces) and WON 154,480 (+79,040 NET)I think this is a pretty standard shove, because the BB has less than 12 BB's. He was fairly tight, so I think this is close to the bottom of his calling range, though he may be better at adjusting than I gave him credit for. Anyway, I have much fewer qualms with this hand than with the A3 hand. Anyway, after this hand I'm down to 30k and my image is completely shot to shit. Thats ok because I'm looking to get called when I shove next. And four hands later, this is exactly what happens.

T (two pair, Aces and Queens) and WON 70,196 (+41,398 NET)I'm way ahead before the flop, and after the flop am only a 65/35 dog. But I brick out and am done in 15th. Overall, I ran pretty well on the day, but couldn't close the deal. If I can work out my uncertainties about the late game play, especially with weak aces, then I think I'll be coming out better on future deep runs.
