Default uhhhh this is why i never win tourny's

so yeterday i'm playing on fulltilt,, enter a 8$ satillite to win a 26$ satillite token 18 players,, top 5 got token it was pretty easy.. so i got my token and enter a 26$ 25,000 garenteed prize pool tourny.. u know just cause i felt like it.. so i'm play pretty good,, trying to stay focused got up to about 8000 when i reraise a raise from the button with AK on the sb and get called by doffus #1whos on the bb and the button folds and he has AJ.. so the jack comes on the river and i'm left with 5000.. so i'm just trying to stay alive cause the bubble is coming up... get past the bubble and make it into the money and double up twice,, now i'm sitting pretty got 17 000 when this hands comes up..
i get on the sb(nice haven't had kk all day)

I feel for u.. after 3 hours of play last night, live home game with 9 people I was on the bubble. I triple blinds with AK, donk calls, flop comes AK8. I'm happy, I pot raise... he goes all in I barely have him covered. My worst thought is pocket 8, but I call he flips over A3. Turn and river both come 3. Took a deap breath and refrained from homocide. I ended up $200 for the night in the side-cash game, then went home to my family and chalked it up to the "game of poker".

We can feel the moment, but if a beat cant be left behind, we need to find a safer game.
