I know this is a stupid hand to call a bad beat.  However, I was near the bubble of the Stratosphere HPT main.  I have 200K+ in chips and had made most of my chips from 3-betting light. Very few hands had went to showdown.  Villain had 300K.  I 3 bet a MP raiser who was raising from middle position at least 50%.  He immediately goes all in.  I think for about five minutes.  He was displaying several signs of weakness, breathing, etc..  I felt as if the immediate all-in was suspicious.  We were near the bubble and I thought there was a good chance he was just titled from my all my 3-betting (I had 3 bet this particular opponent about 4 times in under 2 hours bc he was raising so light and he had folded each time).  This could be the one time he woke up with a hand.  However, after thinking about it, I really think he's just trying to send me message and exploit the bubble.  I call.  He immediately gives a sheepish look and says good call.  He displays 3-6o and I have AQs.  Flop is 2-4-5.  I am bubble boyyellcry.  I know I was only a 2:1 favorite, but I think that's a really stupid hand to bubble a major event with.
