EPT Barcelona Day 3

I messed it up pretty bad. The very first hand of the day I made a resteal all-in with AQo which catapulted me to over 50k after the raiser folded. After letting the blinds go through me, I was on the button with A8o and slightly under 50k. The action was folded to me and I openshoved (16 BBs) only to discover that the BB woke up with AA. That's about the worst possible scenario for me and my hand found no help on a J4242 board. I don't know why I openshoved, I just got caught up in the moment instead of sitting back for a second and analyzing my options.

I came in 52nd place for €10,500, which is disappointing because it's the absolute minimum that was possible after making it to Day 3. I was pretty upset about my play yesterday, even though several people said my shove was OK (probably just to give my mind peace).

I'll consider this amateur mistake a big lesson learned.
