Forgot to put starting and ending
Start of challenge: $100 PS challenge
I went to the tank on this one, I don't know if I should have but puh-lease was behind me so that really made me fold. He is a really tight player and playing well. But it was my action, the guy deadly hands was loose not like a loose cannon but pretty loose and short stacked. Should I have not thought so long about this one and mucked? By folding tho I stayed out of a tough spot with puh-lease especially on the turn.

I kind of like this play, I was pretty patient throughout the whole time, and was planning exactly on this and not raising this guy. He could have had AA or QQ but the way he was playing led me to think that if he had AA or QQ then he would have just pushed for a larger amount on the flop and especially after I re-raised. That re-raise was a test. I put him exactly on AQ when I saw him commit a call to my re-raise post flop so that is why I pushed all in on the turn knowing he had AQ or even AJ and at the end I was not surprised to find him showing AQ like I bad beated him or something.

AJ is the devil and the Ace temptation
This hand has gotten me in trouble so many times. I think the value comes from that giant A staring at you in the face and then just goading you to call. But as you learn in time unless you get a K10Q rainbow flop your screwed. But sometimes you just want to play even tho you know what the other people are playing and that Ace stares at you A5o or A9o but I am surprised that Andy Bloch has a favorite hand of A5s it was talked about over a blog b/c A3s would be a stronger hand with no 234 flop affected by hole cards 56 the later would be better in a 245 flop where nuts of 36 hole cards which is a rare hand to start with. His reason was a flop of 55x against 56 just somethings good to think about when you compare the Ace in the hole.
Early play in step 1 wsop satilite I folded because little information and bad position
