Got my 2nd biggest online cash Monday night

I played 13 tournaments on Monday 12/4/07. 11 on Poker Stars and 2 on Bodog. I only cashed in one of the first 9 and was still in 2 when I signed up for the 9pm $5 on Stars and the $11 5k guarantee on Bodog. I cashed in both of these getting 148th of 1737 in the $5 on Stars for $11.29, and at the time I busted from that I had a really nice stack in the 5k guarantee on Bodog. Well, I ended up getting 2nd place in a field of 459 for $770! I was really bummed that I didn't win it because I had the guys number heads up. It was a really sick heads up match that lasted about 30 minutes with between 20 and 30 BB's total on the table. I had almost a 2 to 1 chip lead when we started. I chopped him down a little and then I got him all-in with 7-7 against his A-9. He hit 2 aces and took a small chiplead over me. I got the chiplead back after a few small pots and built it up agin to almost a 2 to 1 lead. I got him all-in this time with A-J against his K-Q and he hit the K to take the chiplead back. He took another good pot when I had A-A and he had J-5. Flopped a 5 and rivered another 5 and I paid him off a small river bet. When I was down about 4-1 and only had 6 BB's, I shoved with Q-10s and he called with K-9 and held. GG me. I was happy and sad at the same time. Happy I got my 2nd biggest online cash, but sad and deflated that I was a coin flip away from winning the tourney and $1,250.

Oh well, there's always more.
