Narrative:
Aircraft X came off runway 14 at buckley underneath simultaneous ILS landings north at denver. Aircraft X was filed out over ALS so I was gradually working them southbound and climbing them little by little as traffic and MVA's allowed. Southwest corner of the dump airspace I finally got trapped. Cos arrival was there going southeast at 110; a bjc arrival wnw-bound at 120; an apa arrival descending on the zombz arrival. I couldn't climb to 110 to meet that MVA because the cos arrival was stuck above me at 110. Then the flight didn't auto-flash to ZDV as it should and I didn't notice it until I was already in ZDV's airspace.should have made the aircraft depart runway 32. It was the runway most aligned with the wind. If not that then I should have gone eastbound until I got to a less congested place where I could climb.
