    First of all, that totally sucks...sorry!

    Second, don't know what the other tables looked like stack-wise, but just curious if you considered folding. Obviously if you double through you're good to go, but is it possible you were already good to go?

    It definitely wasn't DRY's fault, if I had his stack I would have been raising every hand too.
    Average stack was over 40, I was watching the other tables and I think at this point there were only 2< 10K - the short stacks kept doubling up, it was frustrating. I could have survived another couple rounds, and maybe snuck my way in, but I couldn't fold in this spot.
