(Villain had TT dont know why its not showing)

There was the hand that knocked me out, id been short/average the entire time and had <10BBs for the last 1hrish. Then this, the min raise guy had been loose raising with rags looking to steal, so I just want to take it down preflop get the job done. I know its standard but being so close to the big and staying up from 1am till 8.25 the $30 is a big boost to my BR but I don't know if i'll ever be that close again.

Good job! And you'll get there again, just use patience and look over your hand histories to see how you got there this time. Post some HH's that you think might be close calls and let people explain how you might play them better.

I was lucky throughout this tourney there weren't may decisons that i think were close. I mean I went through dry spells, some epic ones at that but then the decisions were easy. When the big hands finally came, they would hit, My KA cracked AA, and my AA came from a behind on two pair to make a ace high straight.

Nice $30 in my account but like i say so close yet so far lol. Maybe next time. I way up in terms of cash at the DD so i think there will be many more to come. Imo its the best microstakes tourney around.

You did great! I think you should be pleased with your finish. Lately I've been finding in the later stages of the tourneys is a different game. I'm sure you'll get there again, and do even better. ^^
