WSOP Event 38 $1,500 NL

Arrived on time. There was this crazy kid at my table, I had position, and was waiting to snap him off. 25/50 he opens 175 in the HJ, I make it 625 from SB with QQ, he calls, we check AKK flop, I check 3 turn, he bets 50 lol, I call, check King river, he bets 950, I call, he has A2o, down to 3k from original 4500. 50/100 he opens to 275 in middle, I make it 800 with QQ in position, he calls, we check Q92r flop, he overbet-ships 7s turn, bringing a back door flush draw, and I hold vs his J8ss. Same level, old dude limps, one more limp, SB completes, I check 76o in the BB, I lead K76ssx for 225, old dude quickly raises to 800, I raise to 2300, he ships for like 6.5k (I cover), I call and hold vs his AA, very healthy 15k stack. A bit dangerous on my part, limped pot, 70 BBS with bottom two, etc, but whatever, it worked out. BB is sitting out, 2 limpers for a 100, I make it 500 on the button with ATo, 2nd limper ships for 2k more, I call and lose to his AK, tricky overlimp on his part, worked to perfection. I raise TT, grandpa calls from the BB, we check down QQJ3K board, he has to show first, so he flips over an Ace, I show my hand, and then he flips over a Jack, slowrolled! 100/200, big stack raises to 500 UTG+2, another big stack calls, I call in late with 99 and 11k total, flop T98ssx, raiser bets 600, caller makes it 1650, I make it 4700, raiser calls, caller folds, turn is Kx, raiser puts me all in and I lose to his QJo. Yes, the flop was extremely dangerous, and I thought there is some chance he might have TT when he he overcalled 2 raises, but I think my hand is way too strong, and the money must go in. Tomorrow 5k 6-max, my 2nd favorite tournament of the World Series, I will crush it.
