Run deep without much results

I was playing this huge MTT $5+R (3300p) on PS and was grinding it again after putting in a bunch of hours. It was break time, had a nice little break, back to the grind, in LP I get KQcc. In EP, this guy who has been raising 2.5-3 times PF and then plays the flop meekly, again makes the standard raise. He had around 90K to my 200K chip count, so figured it was a decent hand to play with. I call, flop is QJ4, he bets, I raise, he pushes, after thinking for a few seconds I made the call. First I had him covered, second I still might improve if I am running against a made hand. Yes, he did have QQ and I didnt improve on the turn or river. Prior to this hand I was at around 30th out of 100 something left. I still had around 100K left, the next hand I get 99 and an active player with even in chips makes the standard raise. I pushed part tilt and hoping to project the same. Somehow the guy made the call with AJo and spikes the J on flop and I was gone in two hands after the break. It was hurtful to lose again after putting in the hours and being in top 3 at various points. I know I am good to take down one of these MTTs on PS and I will do it. When? not too far, I am gonna post about an MTT win on PS very soon. So stay glued and watch me post my biggest MTT win ever :-)

So today is my pool league night and hopefully I would make it 8 (or 9 lost track) in a row and keep my Top Gun status.
