I played a few of the big tournaments yesterday. I played the $350+20 WSOP 150 seat satellite on Poker Stars, which I satellited into for about $50. And I also played the $500+35 Full Tilt 100 Seat satellite which I also satellited into for about $150. I busted fairly early in these, however at the time I was not upset. The tournament I got really deep in was the Party Poker 1 million guaranteed. This is the big Sunday tournament which costs $200+15 to enter, and has a guaranteed prize pool of 1 million dollars. I played almost perfect poker, I think I misplayed 3 hands, but I still managed to have an above average stack when I got bad beated out.

Preflop: Hero is Button with As, Ks.
5 folds, CO calls t40000, Button raises to t150000, 2 folds, CO calls t110000.
Flop: (t300000) Kd, 7c, 4h (2 players)
CO bets t40000, Button raises to t220000, CO calls t180000.
Turn: (t740000) 3h (2 players)
CO checks, Hero goes all in, CO calls t380140.
River: (t1120140) Js (2 players)
CO shows..... KcJc for a river 2 pair.
He was drawing to 3 outs with 1 card to come. Cardplayer says I was 93.18% to win the hand. Just an insane bad beat when you consider how much money is on the line.
This pot would have given me just over 1.5 million in chips as we were approaching a critical time, the final table bubble. 1st place in this tournament was just over $165,000. I also heard that the final table was very weak, and was very poor at making the deal when it got short handed. Man did this hurt. It felt like a really hard punch in the stomach, just takes the wind right out of you. It happend on the river too. I get him allin drawing to 3 outs, and boom. This was probably the biggest and worst beat I have ever taken, simply because of the size of this tournament. You do not make it this deep in these big sunday tournaments too often. Insted of a huge payday like I have been waiting for I took 35th place out of 5482 people. I won just under $2k for this, all in all, making it a rather good day. However I am sickly dissapointed, I feel like I could have won so much more.
