$1/2 Texas Hold'em

Started the game 4 handed but knew it would build by the # of people on waiting list. Got stuck early then made it back above board. Just ran into AA with QQ to put a bit of hurt on the stack, but playing well.
 
Went to shit, and probably played poorly.

$10 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (6th out of 207 Players)

First hand AKs vs AQs vs KJo.  Get all in pre and lose to the AQ flush on the river. Really short and see wht I'll do from here
 
Smehow I make it back to over 5K in chips at the break. Playing aggo and fearless. I will see how far I go with theis strategy.
 
At second break I am 2 of 31 left. Playing a combination of math and feel which seems to work for me the best.  If I rely too much on one or the other I don't play loose/tight enough. Trusting my gut seems to be the best.  This seems to to about 1/2 bottle of Jack deep in a tounrey.  Now it is time to lay off the Jack and play for the win.
 
Played solid and aggressive and made the final table. now just picking spots and feeling my way through. Have been everywhere from 2nd to last in chips at the final table.
 
Picking and choosing then pick up AJs in bb with a raise from one behind button.  I push and he shows Ak and holds. I pick up KS in sb for all-in but lose to Ax.  Good tourney.  Not too much I can say I would do differently.

Solid aggressive play and only had one person (actually 2 on the same hand) suck out on me.

$1.30 to my other tourney playing buddy for the 10% swap. 
 
Played real well and got unfortunate late when my AQ lost to QT pre.  It would have put me in a commanding chip position.  but I got a short stack lesson from the master and it should help nest time I am in the same situation.
