Presto! She disappears...

I am so upset with myself right now I can hardly see. I didn't expect to win the tournament, but I expected to a lot better than #75 out of 78... AK went nowhere, 99 were called and overcards hit, KJ went nowhere, AQ got the blinds, then I got 55 - and *presto* I was gone. I made a huge mistake checking my set on the flop with 2 diamonds out there. Of course the turn was a diamond - I bet the pot in hopes of snapping off the draw, hoping a flush hadn't been made. I got raised and then I stupidly pushed. I was gone and I shed some crocodile tears. I wanted so bad to do well. Aw jeeeez.
