Well to make a long story short, I cashed about 978 place. The play really wasn't as tough as I though it would be. I survived getting my aces cracked early and was running well with a stack of about 125K in chips when I busted out.
I would like some thoughts on how bad I played my last hand.
I was in the big blind with a stack of about 125K in chips (Ks2d)
guy under the gun limps
folds around to small blind who calls
I check
flop comes 2s2h5c
small blind bets about 2 bbs
I raise to about 8bbs
the under the gun limpers pushes all-in with about 145K in chips
small blind folds
I unfortunatety call?
he turns over A2 which hold up and I'm out of the Sunday Million with only $89 profit!
How dumb was my call? IWhen he turned over A2 I still thought that I made a good call but now that I think about it, I should have expected 55, the boat. Well what do you think did I blow my shot with a bad call or did I just get beat.
I have the feeling that at that level of play I should have known better and folded. Can you make that fold?

No. I would expects 6s or 7s from the UTG. Maybe 4s. Terrible UTG limp with A/2, and you simply got very unlucky. If he had 5's, I doubt he would make such a large re-raise all in. Good call, IMO.
i woulda made that call instantly...tough beat
congrats on cashing
I had a similar hand over at AP. My K3s lost to A3o.
I thought I was trapping so when Villain went AI
I didn't think it through before instantly callin'.
If I had to play that hand over again, I might have folded.
Chances are I would've called.
