Deep run in the VIP 50K

Went deep toda in the VIP 50K freeroll. Was among the chip leaders once we got ITM and stayed there until about 35 players remaining. I raised the CO with JTo and the btn called all in who had 1 ante left and the BB called. Flop Q8x 2 spades BB check/calls. Turn is my T and I check behind hoping to either hit my gutshot or see a cheap river. River comes an 8 and he instantly bets out 2/3 pot and I think a minute and call thinking he might have a busted draw here but he had rivered trips. That cost me about 1/3 of my stack and was probably a bad call on the end but I had been running good and didn't think he had a Q. Next hand I get KK and run into a shorty with AA and lose another 1/3 of my remaining stack. With 32 left I had about 20BBs. Stayed alive just keeping my head above water down to the final 2 tables when we went to break. Came back and I was at 10BBs and the bottom of the list just playing push/fold poker trying to get a double up. 15 left MP raises I shove 8.5BBs with AT and he had AJ and I didn't improve and was out. Not a bad run but I was hoping to get deeper than that.

I can't complain too much. I won I think 8 flips in a row to build up my stack as big as I did. I also bubbled the 20K freeroll today.
