step 5 on party

First of all, 2nd hand of game. I'm on button with q 10 suited. 1 limper, guy to my right raises to 45, the bb is 15, we start with a 1000 chips. I wanted to call, I had position, but decided to play it safe and fold. Flop comes q 10 3 rainbow. Raiser and limper are both all in with kq and aq, turn comes a 10 giving my dead hand a full house, that sucked big time.If ya'll know anything about steps on party, there are 5 steps starting with a $12 dollar entry in Step 1(stt of 10 people), top 2 in step 1 and 2 advance. top 3 in step 3 and 4 advance, and the big dance in step has a payout structure of 1-$4,500 2-$2,500 3-$1,800 4-$1,200. So it's down the last 5, me and this other girl are the shortstacks with around $1,400 a piece. The blinds are ridiculous, basically all in time with any decent hand. I get ace 10 in the sb, she 's the big blind with ace 6, she calls my all in and spikes a 6 on the flop. I know she was 1 to 2 to catch, but it just sucked cuz all that work all day to for nothing. One bad beat away from at least $1,200, maybe more. She ended up second with $2,500. Oh well, I'll be back.
