Here's probably the best job I've done of convincing a guy to get all of his money in the pot with me. More surprising, because the tournament had barely started, the blinds were really small, and I didn't get the impression that he had that good of a hand.

Seat 4 is the button
Seat 1: Nino1981 (1290).
Seat 2: Mr. Nice (1730).
Seat 3: Len McRiddle (1300).
Seat 4: DreamOn (1480).
Seat 5: abhayagiri (1975).
Seat 6: lilsully (1040).
Seat 7: johnlock2020 (910).
Seat 8: wba68 (820).
Seat 9: michael1123 (2120).
Seat 10: 4DFUNOFIT (3400).
Player abhayagiri has small blind (10)
Player lilsully has big blind (20)
Player michael1123 received card: Ace of Diamonds
Player michael1123 received card: Ace of Clubs
Player johnlock2020 folds
Player wba68 folds
Player michael1123 calls (20) - no way I wanted to steal the really small blinds here. I was hoping for a decent raise and a good deal of callers, and then I'd raise big enough to get it down to one or two callers . Didn't happen that way, so I improvised.

Player 4DFUNOFIT folds
Player Nino1981 raises (40)
Player Mr. Nice folds
Player Len McRiddle folds
Player DreamOn folds
Player abhayagiri folds
Player lilsully folds
Player michael1123 raises (200) (after pausing for a bit - tried to make it look like I was trying to buy it)
Player Nino1981 calls (180)

*** FLOP ***: Queen of Diamonds Two of Clubs Ace of Hearts
Player michael1123 bets (100) (underbetting, less than my preflop raise, like I was scared of the ace, or maybe missed the flop entirely)

Player Nino1981 raises (200)
Player michael1123 calls (100)

*** TURN ***: Queen of Diamonds Two of Clubs Ace of Hearts King of Spades
Player michael1123 checks
Player Nino1981 bets (140)
Player michael1123 allin (1700)
Player Nino1981 allin (730)

*** RIVER ***: Queen of Diamonds Two of Clubs Ace of Hearts King of Spades Jack of Diamonds
Player Nino1981 mucks cards
------ Summary ------
Pot: 3440. Rake: 0
Board: Queen of Diamonds Two of Clubs Ace of Hearts King of Spades Jack of Diamonds
Player Nino1981 does not show cards. Bets: 1290. Collects: 0 Loses: 1290
*Player michael1123 shows: Three Of Kind of Aces Ace of Diamonds Ace of Clubs. Bets: 2120. Collects:
3440 Wins: 1320

Just my opinion, but you got very lucky, as a 10 derails your whole slow play.

I went all in at the turn. No one should be calling an all in with an inside straight draw.
