Standard Showdown: Rockets vs. Cowboys

I played two tournaments on AP last night: The $2 freeze out and the $25 $6.5k guaranteed. The $2 tourney had its typical 450 or so entrants. I played very well in the opening rounds but wasn't able to keep my momemtum moving in the right direction. Once we were in the money (ITM) I went completely card dead and spewed a lot of chips trying to make some plays. Ultimately, I busted out in 41st place allowing me to break even.

I also played the $25 $6500 guaranteed tourney. This was only my 3rd attempt at this tourney and was my 3rd consecutive cash playing it. I was a little nervous because I was expecting the play to be tougher than my usual $2 or $5 buy-in tourney. I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't. I won some key races in the middle to later rounds and soon found myself 7th in chips with 21 players remaining. I really felt confident that if I didn't get unlucky, I was final tabling this tourney for sure.

Well, from the title of this post, I'm sure you know what my bust out hand was:
