So the tourney started fairly well.
With 25k in chips and a 30 minute clock there is obviously no need to go crazy.
The thinking behind this first pot was that I had previously been 3bet out the blinds and had to lay down 99.
Villain played AK awfully, bloating a pot with just TPTK so when he did make 2 pair on river he had to stackoff and thus lost his early chiplead.
I lost the videos of the other 2 hands which i felt my opponents misplayed but here are the Hand Histories.

So in the end I got a little tired and was nitting around with an M of about 12.
I did well to come back and made some good moves along the way.
I can't help wondering what could have been had I won that first pot but I also felt like I had a massive disadvantage playing so late. Hard to make plays when you start to tire.
Had I known I was playing this today I would have prepared whole weekend for it.
I went out in the end by just shiping 50k from sb with KJs v Inactive button who had just more.
Thankfully he showed 99 when he called and I just knew i wasnt going to hit a 17 outer on:
[Ts As 2s 6c Ad] Board and was gone.
