Damn Close But Not To Be

:(
:(
:(

Just crashed out of the mansion game 20th (pays 8 x 12.5$k wsop packages, almost 500 entrants)
Got lucky in bits in it KK vs AA, Q9hh vs AA on a 10h,8x,5h board, AK vs JJ, AJ vs QQ but was also card dead for long periods. Key pots at the end were:

1600,3200 blinds i push allin about 40k with 99 and called by AK , if that held i would have been 6th/24 with a bit of room to spare but the king flopped and i didnt improve.

Left on 10k i push K9off which is called pot odds by the bb with 83off, 9 flops and im back to 24k again with a huge chance.

I then get 10s and what always seems to happen is the guy that had the AK (vs my 99) has KK and i fail to improve. Would have been 9th/20 if that outdraw came but 20th for $0 it was.

GG WP VUL :(

Knackered but will return in 4 hours for punishment, oh btw running awful on cash tables today totally the opposite of yesterday and done about $700 so far but unavoidable, happy enough with my play.
