MTT Today

I registered into a $5 MTT today. There were 478 players total. I played some of the best poker I've ever played before. Only a few minor mistakes here and there but I'm really proud of the way I played. I finished 4th after being the shortstack for most of the final table. I made some key steals and all in pushes that helped keep me in there. We were four handed and I was just about to double up and take a huge chip lead when this happened...

UTG (t217603)
MP (t103581)
Hero (Button) (t181244)

Preflop: Hero is Button with K, K

UTG bets t18000, 1 fold, Hero raises to t44000, 1 fold, BB raises to t68986 (All-In), 1 fold, Hero calls t24986

After playing so good and for so long my efforts weren't paid in full. It was pretty upsetting to have gone so far only to be sucked out on. But that's poker I guess. Anyways, I just thought I'd share this with you guys. I plan on playing more MTT's in the near future. WSOP here I come!
