Played the $530 on absolute as my only action, got 19th and ran pretty sick bad. Lost 4 straight all ins with good equity to bust me out, 5th if you count the short stack who won his all in on the same hand-for-hand as me so as to stay in the tourney.
The all-ins were: 88 vs KJs vs 75s (40% chance to win), JTs vs A6o (49% chance to win), AQo vs QQ (30% chance to win) and finally KTo vs A5o (43% chance to win). The chance of me losing all of those hands was (.6*.49*.70*.57) or just under 12%. Likewise if I win all of those then I’m on my way to win the tournament and a massive chip lead. So, I guess today wasn’t my day.
