I play a lot of freeroll tourneys among other things, and nothing frustrates me more than being dealt pocket pairs and then having to chose between calling one or multiple all in bids or folding. Generally, I fold (unless its aa or kk) thinking it's too early to go out like this, too many people around the table, anyone of whom could get the lucky flop. Often, to my despair, i find I could have called and stumbled upon trips, netting me a big pot and a crucial jumbo stack early in the tourney. Today I had 9's with 5 other people going all in (go figure). I folded only to cringe as my 3rd 9 came on the flop. Noone else even had a pair and only mediocre hands. I would have won 7,500 chips, a great start to my tourney. My question is, was my choice a good one. what do some of you do in these situations?
