Last night I was playing in a live £5 rebuy tournament and I had a player that made proportionately the same raise as you preflop with the same hand. I called from the button. He 3/4 bet the pot on the flop and I again just called. Turn came down as a 2 and for some reason unknown to me he just checked it. I assumed he had something like KQ/AJ/small pair at this point and I decided to check too. River was 9 and this time he nervously bet the pot. I was sitting pretty on trip queens and shoved all in hoping he had something like 2pair. He instantly called and doubled me up nicely 
Some people might question why I didn't raise the flop or the turn, but I think I played it just right and got paid
. If he showed 9s, I would have been in a mood, but that's the way it goes...
I made an awesome call late in the game, but my proudest moment of the night was binning AKs to a monster reraise from a very tight player in the very next hand. I spent a good few minutes pondering before folding and showing the AK... he flipped over the aces I was sure he had and I was feeling rather smug
Ended up winning nearly £400, so not bad for a silly £5 tourney. Didn't rebuy or addon either
