Ouch, this one hurt...

Main Event £33. I have a great start, build the stack from 5k to 10k, pick up a bounty along the way. Remain over 10k for a while. Massive stack moves next to me from another table; he has 50k (probably not right to say his name but as I type he has loads in main and A LOT of bounties). I quickly learn he's loose, raising EVERY hand; calling wide and getting lucky. He eventually takes me when I reraise with AK pre committing over half my stack with the intent i am all in, flop 775 i think he shoves i call. he has called reraise with 10 5. C'est la vie.

I rebuy; bide my time take some pots off him; get over 10k again; then this hand -not sure I can forget this one easily.
I have A10; he raises (as he does every hand) to 900 (blinds 300). I re-pop to 3900; leaving 6k ish back. He calls. Flop a 10 3 ALL hearts. OK, he checks, I know if i shove and he has a heart he calls and do i want that risk; maybe but avoidable. I check back knowing if the turn is blank i shove.

Turn 5 diamonds; perfect!

I shove for my 5-6k. he takes a few seconds and calls. Now he does have loads of chips, still 40k back BUT I've reraised pre, there's 3 hearts, ace high flop. He shows K5, no hearts.

So happy.

River 5 hearts; trips for the legend. 2 outs and evidentally one was a heart which I could have easily been holding!

As you can tell it's still raw!!!!

Lol, just lol!
