So i ended up finished second in the $300 Railbirds tournament. I was basically in cruise control the whole time. I think I played extremely well, and got extremely unlucky heads up. About with 11 left, I raised from the small blind with 66 blind versus blind. The big blind shoved like 18 big blinds about 80% of my stack. I some how called and won the race. I basically controlled the final table to my liking. I eventualy got down to the final 3 with about 100k and 135k in play. I shoved on the big blind bvb @ 800/1600. He had about 15k. I had A2, he instacalled KQ and obviously hit a queen. Had a hand earlier 3 hand. Where the small blind shoved 8 big blinds with QJ suited and I called with K4 off and lost that one too. So we got heads up, I basically controlled the match except for one hand where the guy min bet called my 5x raise with bottom pair against my obvious air. So i basically got my money in good and got killed! He's the massacre:

I did time bank it. I knew he had a jack, jack nine was a possiblity but I'm never folding in that spot. He obvious hits his suckout and I lose yet another heads up where I dominate the match and lose because I run worse short handed than anyone. Anyways its more points towards first and that $12k package!
