Falling At The Last Hurdle

22 player $109 game all ive played since the 50 minutes of cash earlier and i did get lucky 3 and 4 handed but had them covered each time. Heads up and the following happens:

Basically i have him covered the first 2 pots:

1) unraised pot of 1600 flop QdJd9d and he bets 800, i reraise to 2800 with Qx10d.
turn is 5h and i bet pot of 4800, no way im folding and he moves in for a further chunk and i call. He has Q5off and but i have monster outs and hit 9 for a split. Cant see him folding if no 5 hit the deck so should have won there really.

2) hand or 2 later i have 33 (bear in mind he v agressive with big cards), all chips go in he has 10s and holds.

3) nxt hand i have 44 and chips go in although im only playing for a 17k pot now (44k in play), he has 66. Oops bit of an unlucky or daft heads up, i cant decide which but i find it very difficult to lay any pocket pair down preflop heads up.

$600 for 2nd but was $1200 for 1st, never mind its more money in the kitty anyway.
Its only 12:50am but i may stop for the night there, dunno a break for a bit anyway.
