Flop was decant 2 low pairs 3rd to Value perfect i tought.

- So BB All in i guess He is A, K hand so high pair. ( decant for me )
- next all in also i was ok it must be just FreeRoll ( cant be all legit A, K or so )
- So one of them has hand another one must be some of low pairs 7 or 9 i guess....

After all - I take action to call cause, cant see why i should not risk in FreeRoll...

Some decant tournament i guess for K K hand at least one of them and another one A, A or somthing like that at least decant Ac with any other c...
So here im to Call it.

- Ok here i was with mouth open, right only about BB just hes King and bad luck on guy with 9,9. ( thought as K, K)

what you think about FreeRoll betting all in % and what would you do - and why?

Free rolls certainly can allow one to play loose.

I'd shove on that.


Also being WPN ACR, you get two more tries on each FR.

I usually am loose on the first 2, and then tighten up if I have to try a third time.

Yea well that`s what i was thinking :thefinger better than All in first hand

I should be clear though, SOME freerolls on ACR / WPN can be re-entered on the other two WPN's - but a lot of proprietary third party are strictly ACR.

And that's an entirely different issue too- how might having 3 entries to a FR affect game play. Surely the last of the 3 must be the most serious play, but an argument could be made to play out all 3 as good and conservative as possible.

7 9 off ???

OK, you have position but that's about it...

And 2 all-ins on that flop should alarm you...
Pretty obvious there's a set out there...

This hand could have been an easy fold with no regrets preflop. Would have saved you around 2700 chips.

it is pretty obious that someone has a set its just a matter os time that you will knw it.

firts it was family pot. you recive no information and range of their hand is from 72 to AA becouse this is freeroll and sometimes that kind of tours can finish in buls*&t all in in first hand

I usually find with freerolls it's stupid crazy for a while then it slows down to something resembling thoughtful play. The trick is to make it through that initial phase. That requires discipline and A WHOLE LOT OF LUCK!

I haven't been playing a lot of freerolls lately but when I do I only manage to place 1 in 10 (maybe 15) or so. A lot of that has to do with the fact that the payouts are so heavily weighted towards the top few positions that I don't really see the point in placing any lower. I would say that's just me, but the way people play these in the early stages it really seems that a lot share my opinion.

Usually I would agree, but yesterday I made a call simply because the pot ended up being so big (and if I didn't win that hand I was likely going to be too short to recover), only to find that the bet was a complete bluff. That doesn't happen often, but it definitley does happen.

This is a simple fold pre-flop. Problem solved.

You're unfortunate that you hit a bit of a monster flop and find yourself 2nd best, but ultimately, you got yourself in a horrible position by playing a poor hand in a multi-way pot and getting married to it despite lots of action in front of you.

Poor play from start to finish.

Freerolls are always fun with stuff like this
