Yes, I realise it was a donk play but when I saw all those chips going in I couldn't help myself!

So, after that I stayed pretty much in 1st place for a quite a while but later in the tourney this hand came up...I laid down the draw on the basis that I convinced myself this guy had AK and was betting to protect his hand, needless to say it worked (BTW had NO info on this guy, arrived at the table 7 hands prior to this one). Was pi**ed at myself for not calling as I had the odds to do so...

Anyway, fairly near the bubble this hand (with the same guy) bust me out, i'd already laid down the flush draw against this guy and I was sure he was on a steal...sucked out on me on the river and I f**king lost it...calmed down now tho
