Just an FYI, you'll see plenty of shenanigans at higher levels, also. Don't be disappointed when someone busts you out of a $50 tourney with crap when you call their 3 bet bluff with AA and they have 56 sooted...

Uh yeh shove preflop in the last 2 hands.
QFTThis reminded me of a tournament I played the other day where I got my aces cracked at the final table. I was a little tilted, but I remembered how lucky I had gotten earlier to even be at the final table. Just remember you have to take the good with the bad, and these beats happen at ALL LEVELS. Here are the hands I'm talking about, first one I'm short and got lucky as hell to survive and then the beat I took at the final table. Hope this helps ease the frustration a little.Stage #2037241500 Tourney ID 4942943 Holdem Multi Normal Tournament No Limit 400 - 2009-12-05 00:44:57 (ET)Table: 10 (Real Money) Seat #1 is the dealerSeat 1 - NECKDEEP2 (2,598 in chips)Seat 2 - SGFULTON (3,445 in chips)Seat 3 - ALWAYSCHE111 (6,680 in chips)Seat 4 - PEAJAY97 (7,755 in chips)Seat 6 - SPOLECAT (9,075 in chips)Seat 7 - DA_SURFER (8,870 in chips)Seat 8 - BIGSTICKER (10,060 in chips)Seat 9 - MADTOWNJERRY (6,647 in chips)NECKDEEP2 - Ante 50SGFULTON - Ante 50ALWAYSCHE111 - Ante 50PEAJAY97 - Ante 50SPOLECAT - Ante 50DA_SURFER - Ante 50BIGSTICKER - Ante 50MADTOWNJERRY - Ante 50SGFULTON - Posts small blind 200ALWAYSCHE111 - Posts big blind 400*** POCKET CARDS ***Dealt to SGFULTON [3d As] PEAJAY97 - FoldsSPOLECAT - FoldsDA_SURFER - Raises 800 to 800BIGSTICKER - FoldsMADTOWNJERRY - FoldsNECKDEEP2 - FoldsSGFULTON - All-In(Raise) 3,195 to 3,395ALWAYSCHE111 - FoldsDA_SURFER - Calls 2,595*** FLOP *** [10c 2h 4h]*** TURN *** [10c 2h 4h] [Ac]*** RIVER *** [10c 2h 4h Ac] [5c]*** SHOW DOWN ***SGFULTON - Shows [3d As] (Straight, ace to five) DA_SURFER - Shows [Qd Ad] (One pair, aces) SGFULTON Collects 7,590 from main pot*** SUMMARY ***Total Pot(7,590)Board [10c 2h 4h Ac 5c]Seat 1: NECKDEEP2 (dealer) Folded on the POCKET CARDSSeat 2: SGFULTON (small blind) won Total (7,590) All-In HI:(7,590) with Straight, ace to five [3d As - B:5c,B:4h,P:3d,B:2h,P:As] Seat 3: ALWAYSCHE111 (big blind) Folded on the POCKET CARDSSeat 4: PEAJAY97 Folded on the POCKET CARDSSeat 6: SPOLECAT Folded on the POCKET CARDSSeat 7: DA_SURFER HI:lost with One pair, aces [Qd Ad - P:Ad,B:Ac,P:Qd,B:10c,B:5c] Seat 8: BIGSTICKER Folded on the POCKET CARDSSeat 9: MADTOWNJERRY Folded on the POCKET CARDS____________________________________________________Stage #2037444447 Tourney ID 4942943 Holdem Multi Normal Tournament No Limit 3,500 - 2009-12-05 03:10:37 (ET)Table: 45 (Real Money) Seat #8 is the dealerSeat 1 - BUDMANN1959 (141,099 in chips)Seat 2 - ALWAYSCHE111 (97,205 in chips)Seat 4 - 25V (29,574 in chips)Seat 5 - ALLAN D (34,056 in chips)Seat 6 - PAVEL (107,589 in chips)Seat 7 - ZUSE000 (68,947 in chips)Seat 8 - MIKESBABE (69,924 in chips)Seat 9 - SGFULTON (78,606 in chips)BUDMANN1959 - Ante 350ALWAYSCHE111 - Ante 35025V - Ante 350ALLAN D - Ante 350PAVEL - Ante 350ZUSE000 - Ante 350MIKESBABE - Ante 350SGFULTON - Ante 350SGFULTON - Posts small blind 1,750BUDMANN1959 - Posts big blind 3,500*** POCKET CARDS ***Dealt to SGFULTON [As Ac] ALWAYSCHE111 - Folds25V - All-In(Raise) 29,224 to 29,224ALLAN D - FoldsPAVEL - Calls 29,224ZUSE000 - FoldsMIKESBABE - FoldsSGFULTON - All-In(Raise) 76,506 to 78,256BUDMANN1959 - FoldsPAVEL - Calls 49,032*** FLOP *** [8s 5c 9s]*** TURN *** [8s 5c 9s] [Kh]*** RIVER *** [8s 5c 9s Kh] [8h]*** SHOW DOWN ***25V - Shows [7s 7d] (Two Pair, eights and sevens) PAVEL - Shows [Ks Kd] (Full house, kings full of eights) SGFULTON - Shows [As Ac] (Two Pair, aces and eights) PAVEL Collects 98,064 from side pot-1PAVEL Collects 93,972 from main pot*** SUMMARY ***Total Pot(192,036:93,972,98,064)Board [8s 5c 9s Kh 8h]Seat 1: BUDMANN1959 (big blind) Folded on the POCKET CARDSSeat 2: ALWAYSCHE111 Folded on the POCKET CARDSSeat 4: 25V HI:lost with Two Pair, eights and sevens [7s 7d - B:8s,B:8h,P:7s,P:7d,B:Kh] Seat 5: ALLAN D Folded on the POCKET CARDSSeat 6: PAVEL won Total (192,036) HI:(192,036) with Full house, kings full of eights [Ks Kd - P:Ks,B:Kh,P:Kd,B:8s,B:8h] Seat 7: ZUSE000 Folded on the POCKET CARDSSeat 8: MIKESBABE (dealer) Folded on the POCKET CARDSSeat 9: SGFULTON (small blind) HI:lost with Two Pair, aces and eights [As Ac - P:As,P:Ac,B:8s,B:8h,B:Kh]
