My buddy called me and told me about a $10K guaranteed tournament on Bovada Sunday. It had 15-minute levels and players started with 5,000 chips -- sounds like a good structure for a nitty old man.

There were 2208 others who must have had the same idea I had. We played for nearly 10 hours.

At the final table, I was all in twice with A-J versus A-rag and ended up splitting the pot. On one, the board was A-Q-10-10-x, and the other was something similar. Finally I ran Q-J into aces (see below). When you are short-stacked, stuff happens.
