This time 2 tables, by the time everyone that arrived late got in, maybe 20 or 22 people.

About the third hand I picked up pocket queens. Blinds were 25 and 50 but the previous hand a guy raised 250 so I raised 250 under the gun. SIX callers. Hmm. Flop came 2/3/4, 2 clubs. the BB raised 500. I figured he had stayed with something like A/rag. I considered coming over the top but folded. Yeah, a pair of 4s won the hand.
That was basically my night. Got blinded down to 1600 hundred, far and away the short stack. woman 2 seats to my right raised 1000. I figured my A/Q off was ahead, but not by much. She typically raised stuff like K/Q, Q/10. I went all in. one other caller, three to the flop. pair of Kings and a 9. She instantly went all in...and the other guy called. Board paired the 9s and a blank. She flipped up...pocket 7s. I had her beat with the board and my ace. The other guy flipped up...pocket 10s. That's right, with a raise of a 1000 and a reraise he called with that. Of course, hard to crticize it since it worked and my impatience certainly did not deserve to be rewarded but I did manage to go the entire night without winning a single hand. That was not too impressive. I sucked hard tonight.
