A few of the more memorable hands I played this week...

Hand 1, Friday night, Kingsford:
Blinds 50/100.
UTG limps for 100. Folded to me in MP, I go all in for 700 with 99. Des moans, shows me an A, and folds. Folded back around to UTG, who QUICKLY calls, and shows A2s.
"2 outs, lovely."
Door card: F*cking A. Rest of the flop irrelevant, turn: Q.
River: 9. The table erupts. As I'm raking in the chips, a player goes "funny, I folded Q9." 1 outer!
Hand 2, Friday night, Kingsford:
Blinds 300/600
After folding A2s to an all in (who showed 23o), I was steaming. I went all in next two hands (with JJ and QQ, respectively
). Entire table thought I was on tilt. Big stack, VERY loose player limps (he arrived AFTER I went on tilt, didn't know I was steaming). I go all in for 5k preflop, INSTANTLY. Folded around to mr loose, who has 8k... ish, behind him. He doesn't care about the outcome (wants to leave) and quickly calls.
QQ vs AJs.
He rivers an A.
I can't complain because I wanted a call, and I knew the player, knew I'd get a call. I could've 3xBB bet it and then got him to fold on the flop, but I was a little bit on tilt. Like rcon said the other day, can't complain if what got you rich, also got you broke (or something like that
)
Hand 3: Today, at Nuri.
Last hand before break. I have 1350, and one card left. Folded around to cutoff, who limps for 200. I'm in the SB with QQ and pop it up to 700. BB, who has about 5k behind him, looks at me.
"Raise on my BB hey."
"Yep."
"How many cards do you have left?"
"One."
"Hmm... ok. Raise... 1600."
Cutoff folds, I go all in. He takes his change and we reveal.
QQ vs A3o.
"What the hell."
"I wanted you to fold to protect your last card..."
He failed to notice I had more than 50% of my stack in the pot preflop, I guess... while we're organising the stacks a table member goes "I folded A3!" Looking good, 2 outs before the flop.
Flop 3 x x....eeeeep.
Turn: x.
River: A.
