May 28, 2006, 1PM: Played 9 hours, 6 minutes at Bullwhackers - Helena
$320 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (4th out of 24 Players)

Played solid.  Started to get impatient when getting down to 6 players and wanted to take a smoke break. (30 min till break).  After pigeoning off some of my chips and the break.  I regrouped my concentration and made good plays, and good reads.
 
When down to 4 players offered several times to save the buyin for 4th.  I was 3rd to 4th at the times of the offer.  After the stacks fluxuated a lot in the tourny and playing for 2 more hours with out losing a player, the one chip stack ended up agreeing to it.  He was chip leader at the time and then ended up the short stack. 
 
The donkey ended up doubling up and then build a huge stack back.  He ended up busting me, with a 4 outer.  So Frustrating.  If I double up there I am in good shape to continue playing the way I was.  Making good lay downs and stealing blinds in the right oppurtinities.  At the time I busted I have 7X the BB.
 
Overall was happy the way I played, just didnt like playing over 9 hours and making $10 to lose to a 4 outer.
