Bounced out on this......

This was the hand that was suppose to carry me into tonight's round of the Survivor tournament. I think the Poker Fairy and I need to have quiet chat somewhere . . . .

Sorry guys, for some reason I can't just copy and paste hand histories, and after twenty minutes of playing around I can no longer be @rsed to fathom out what the problem is (what's copied is only the basic text output and not the entire graphic in the window). So below I've reconstructed the hand via MS Word:

DOHHHHHHH

Shove or fold pre flop depending on the game situation.

Limping in to set mine with less than 10 big blinds is not a good idea, especially in a sattellite.

Shove pre magee !

Somehow can't see how shoving pre-flop would have avoided the beat - if anything it increases the probability of being outdrawn without the option to bail and cut your losses . . .
