Me and keys have both made day 5 of the main event, sadly we both have a bowl, about 200k each. When we go back blinds are 6/12 so some rungood is required.
Good news is there is less than 300 players left and we both have $38k locked up.
Today was going quite well for me, i got up to 400k despite getting unlucky in a few spots - Then i get moved to the main feature table..........
As avid followers of my career will know i tend to play pretty bad under the bright lights. Despite the table being soft i managed to misplay a couple of hands, the worse one being i have JQ on a q103 flop.
I check call flop. Turn is a 9. Fishy guy bets 44k into 100k and i fold (he's showed absolutely no agression in any pot to date and im losing to his value range even with my straight outs. He proudly shows the

He looks at his cards and says "guys you wont believe this, wow, lets get this over with, All in". He's laughing and joking until suddenly he realises he's been called by a fat fish. Seeing his face drop was the highlight of my tournament i think.
The caller had AA whilst the annoying nit has
. Obviously the flop is
..... I know whats coming so i hide my head in my hoody - please ffs no heart!
The turn is the
and i hear the loud girly scream. I look up and he's run off. Literally run off the set, he doesn't come back for the last hand and he wasn't there when i'd bagged up for the day. I made some comments down my mic of what a bad player and annoying person i thought he was hoping that ESPN would pick it up.
So in short pretty tilted but probably got myself to blame and at least im still in........
