August 16, 2009, 3PM: Played 1 hour at bills
$40 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (8th out of 10 Players)

I was definately seen at the table as a very agressive player.  I played the first hand very strong.  I was also talking about poker and asking people where they've played before, etc... trying to show that i was a local and i played a lot.
 
i was doing ok but i should have gotten to know my players a little bit.  i had an over pair, bet big to try to end the hand but got called by a calling station who had nothing at the time of my bet but ended up getting a runner runner flush.  UGH
 
After that huge mistake i only had about $200 (10% of buyin). but i got back up to about $1100. then i went in with my best hand before the blinds hit me (AQ) and i lost.
 
I probably would have gotten 1st or 2nd if i didnt make that big mistake in the beginning.  everyone there sucked.
