GUKPT Cardiff Main Event (Levels 1 & 2)

I must have been awake and well with it because i can remember loads of details from yesterday so im going to post as much as possible:

10,000 starting chips and a 1 hour clock.

Lost 1000 chips early bluffing with king high on a 9h,6h,5x,3h,9x board in a raised pot. Got the quick reminder calling stations will not even consider not folding a hand such as JJ and i mucked the bluff.
Lost another 500 going as low as 8500 missing flops then i caught a couple of hands:

10d,8d i made it 150 utg+1 and only the button called. Flop, KdQx8x both checked. Turn xd and i bet 200, which was raised to 600 and i called. River was another low diamond and i led out for 1000. He called and mucked and i recovered back to 10k.

Called a raise of 300 with AKdd in position after an early raise with the sb coming in too. Flop was Jd5d3x and i raised the raisers continuation bet of 500 to 2000 in total. He thought for ages then folded (didnt show but claimed he had QQ, i know he was a good player but im not sure if he was just after infomation from me or not). Both him and Mad Turk sat next to me were dying to know what i had and both seemed to think i had AA !!!

I peaked at 12k but got moved to a new table shortly after and finished at 10,800 at the first break.

Other hands of note which i wasnt in were:

utg raises to 150 and utg+2 reraised to 400. turk calls on button and so does raiser.
flop Kx5h3h and reraiser bets 500 which is flat called by both. turn is a Ax and it checks to the turk who bets 1200ish, just the reraiser calls. river is 10x and checked to turk he bets 2500. i totally felt he was at it here as i was postive he would have played any big hand a lot faster but when the other guy called with KhQh he wasnt happy and made it clear to the guy it was a terrible call. Turk didnt show but i put him on a mid or low pp.

early raises to 300 which is called by the turk, sb and bb. Flop comes JxJh10h and bb bets 400ish which is called by turk and sb. Turn is a blank and bb bets 1000ish. turk calls and sb (who get slated by the turk after the hand folded KhQh !!!). River is a blank and bb bets 2200. Turk only has 6200 left and makes it damn obvious he has a massive hand by only minimum raising to 4400 after a lot of trash talk which obviously meant he had the hand won. Im surprised he didnt move allin actually as it would probably have got the same result. Anyway the calling station has to call with his A10 !!! The turk showed JJJJ !!!!
