$10k Limit Day 2

The day started out pretty well as I picked up AK and got a 3 bet in and was called on a 234 flop and turn and checked down the river to beat AJ. My high point was 95k about 15 minutes into the day putting me probably top 5 in chips and that was as high as I would get. I was pretty card dead the entire day and when I would pick up hands they were no good. I picked up AK in the sb and Steve Sung(aggressive young Asian) raises, I 3 bet, he calls. Flop AAT, he has TT, so there goes quite a few chips. I couldn't pick up anything after that for about an hour when I picked up AQ on the button and run into AA in the sb. That took me to around 35k in chips when avg was 90 or so with 45 players left. Hoyt Corkins had just came to our table with a ton of chips and he raises utg +1, I 3 bet with TT, he 4 bets, I just call. I only had enough chips left for flop/turn/river bets basically so he bets the Qxx flop and I call, turn x he bets I call, river K, he bets, I call and he has AK of course. There was no point to me raising at any point because he was never folding, at least I don't think, I'm pretty sure he doesn't fold the turn if I raise. That left me with 3k chips which I got in with AQ vs AK. bleh

I believe that it is for me at the WSOP, played 9 events cashed 3 and barely made any money. Had my chances once again this year just like last year but once again no day 2 luck. oh well. Time to go home and play some golf and get that single digit handicap.
