Like Phil Ivey, I don't cash or I final table

I guess in this sense, the final table is the same as cashing as it was a 58 person event. I got 6th for like $1600.

Early on I was known as the LAGGY player showing down some awkward looking open-raise hands. That led to most of these hands...

50/100. AA UTG made it 300. Older player (who I think called me a fag under his breath earlier when my 95h open raise won, whatever) flatted in pos. Just us. 4c3c2x I had Ac. I bet 450, he made it 1200. God I hate spots like this, but I peeled. Turn was a 3 and I checked/he shoved for 5500. I immediately said no way he's got the boat/quads with that over bet. It was either A5, 56, or a worse overpair. After pondering I called and he was drawing way live...with J9os.

200/400. Long break between levels since I don't remember. I opened in mp with A10os to 1050. Lady in bb who was getting aggrivated as I raised her last 3 blinds called. It came T87r. She led for 2000 and I shoved for about 10 total. She pondered and called with Q10. I held. She went on to passive-aggressively assault me for opening A10. LOL, I guess ?you? played it well?

400/800. AA on the button, 6 handed as we were down to like 19. 2nd pos, who was pretty aggressive for the few hands I had been at the table, made it 2400. I flatted, and so did the sb. Flop came lovely Q 8 2r. C/Bet 3500, I made it 9500 and they both folded, damn.

I opened JJ for 2.5x, a guy shoved 20 blinds and I insta'd. He had A10, it came JJx so it doesn't even matter what he has.

Forgot blinds, 13 people left 9 paid. A guy opened in 2nd position, fold, I shoved 99 on the button having 2x his chips and putting pressure on the bubble. He tank, and I mean TANK, called with QQ. Jesus, nice mini slowroll buddy.

CL at table, opened to 3600 at 6/12. I reraised from bb with KK to 9600 and with 27k total, which looks super strong imo. He called. It came K 10s 9s. I bet 4 of each, or 6400 leaving like 11k left. He tank flatted. I was wondering wtf he'd do that with. I shoved in the dark, and it came a 9. F me why'd I do that. W/e he tank folded.

At final table went pretty card dead, Shoved J8 os utg with 7 players left and like 4 bbs. SB who was the best player in the tourney imo, iso'd with AK and I outflopped him. That allowed me to outlast 1 more person, before shoving 88 utg and losing to CL's A10os on Axx x A
