Sometimes you wanna scream

OK so I go up to Palomar this morning because it is close by and I figure maybe I will play there more because that's where I was doing all of my winning. Starts off quiet... don't play any hands for most of the rebuy period... actually laid down a pair of 6's that would have won but with the board and the betting I would only have won if I went all in preflop... I would have spiked a 6 on the turn for the set. Finally the 2nd to last hand before rebuys ended, I look down at AQ and went all in with 2 other players both with small pairs. Unfortunately one spiked and 8 for a set. So I rebuy and have to start the rest of the tournament with just 1500 in my stack.... but I am very patient and every time I am about to go out I get a hand that doubles me up and I stay alive. We are finally down to about 12-13 players the blinds are 400-800 and I am in the small blind with J6 offsuit. Three players just limp and even though I was planning on folding I called the 400 (I had about 3500 in my stack) because I was getting 4:1 odds. Sure enough the flop is J/10/6 rainbow and I am first to act. I check hoping someone is aggressive. Sure enough the 9 seat goes all in... then the guy to my right goes all in over the top... I call and the last guy lays his hand down. The guy to my right has JQ suited and the other guy has AQ so I am in the lead. Turn is a ten which forfeits my second pair and gives him the better kicker. The river was a blank and instead of going into the final table with a nice big stack I am going home. Good news is I know I can beat that game so I think I will go back to playing there more often for a while.
