Tournament

I played a $1 90 person tournament last night and finished 3rd, not getting much out of it but I thought that I played the best I could. The big hand of the tournament was when the blinds were 25-50 and i was in third from the button with pocket 8's. Call the mini rasie of 100 and five people saw the flop. The flop was 8h 4d 7s and it went check, I checked top set and the next person bet 425 and it got called by two people and I mini rasie to 850, then i got rerasied and it was rerasied again and we got all the money in the middle and I had top set, another guy had pocket 6's and the other person had 7h 5d for middle pair and straight draw. Turn and river were 3h and jd and I won a monster pot and had a stack of about 11,000. I had pocket aces four times and double up off of them twice and I finally got unlucky on the last hand when I had Ac 7c against kq and he hit a queen on the river to beat my pair of sevens. It was a great tournament and I really think that I did great.
