Only four hours into the tournament and I'm out! I was doing fairly well at my first table up about 1,400 but then doubled up a guy who had KK when I had JJ which left me with about 2,400. Our table broke up and I got moved to another table. Our table had an extremely slow dealer with slower players. There was a preflop raise almost every hand with a lot of action post flop. Unfortunately for me I became extremely card dead the second I moved to the table. I literally never have one decent hand the first hour at the table. The blinds were 100/200 and then 100/200 with a 25 ante. The blinds just ate away my stack down to 700. At that point I had to move in with any two cards. I was in early position. The guy under the gun folded and I pushed all in blind. Everyone folded around to the big blind who thought for awhile and then called with A5. I flipped over my 76 and the board didn't improve my hand. Even though I didn't last very long I still had fun playing. I looked around my table to see if any pros were playing the event, but I couldn't spot any. Evidently there were several pros playing in the event, but I guess they were out of sight from where I was at.
