TOUR 300 40 FTP End 82 48 Hands $1 Main Event Satillite

Payout 1-48 Entry.

Was doing ok and likely on road for entry, but borderline. Thought this last hand would help.

Hand 48. I'm MP w/As Jc and 4645 chips. UTG limps in w/240, I call, CO calls and BB checks. Flop Ah Jd Ks. I have top and bottom pair. BB checks, UTG min bets 240 into the 1280 pot and I raise to 960, UTG reraises all-in w/6385 chips. I doubt he has AK but may have paired any one of those 3 cards, so I call putting me all-in. UTG shows Kh Js, middle and bottom pair. I feel optimistic. Turn Kd. Drat. So much for optimism. River 5d. I'm outta there.

I don't feel too bad about that. I'm really tired and used this as a test to see if maybe I could try my entry in the $1 Main Event Seat Qualifier, but no I can't. Only 5 winners and it's going to take a long, long time to get to the end if I was ever so lucky to get that far.
