7th place in 12$ turbo freezout for 180 players

I got 7th place but it was very low standing for my potential in this tournament. I joined final table as 2nd place and had comfortable stack.

After couple of unsuccessfull hands I dropped to shortstack.

I had A7suited hearts and raised to 8,000 when the chip leader re-raised me to 18,000 and I called. The flop was K52 witn only one of hearts and I didn't call the new bet from the opponent. My stack dropped to 42K - lower but still comfortable.

Next hand my AJ was the weak hand against AK shown by one of the players and my stack dropped to 26K (1500/3000/ante 300 blinds).

I played tight next 11-12 hands until I got A3offsuit and re-raised the chip leader. He shown KQ and made 2 pairs (Kings and Queens) from the board. I left the tournament on 7th position with 69$ from the prize pool.

At the moment I am playing another tournament with same format and I have 5,500 stack  (100/200 blinds) and position 13th of 76 remaining players.

I will be happy to have what to say after this tournament too.
