I hated that QT call under the gun too. I was sitting there, debating whether to call or not, and finally did. Then the guy raises all in, and I know I just wasted that money.

The 22 call from UTG+1 I didn't mind, because there was a lot of limping and I was pretty sure I could see a cheap flop. I think my flop bet here is worse than my preflop call, but I see where you're coming from for sure. This certainly would've been a fold for me at a table with more preflop aggression.

Oh yeah, this hand. This was a complete misread. Him and I were basically battling for 3rd place at that time (there were two big stacks at the table and the other player was sitting out and nearly out), and we both were being very conservative, trying to make it into the money. I read his limp into my BB as serious weakness, and shoved all in, nearly positive that he'd fold. I got very lucky here for a split (even though I was leading on the turn - a win would've been over the top lucky).
