Finished 106th, KK vs AA im such a retard why cudnt i fold
Situation:
i'm 38/136 in a $25 rebuy satellite, to the $216 iPoker $200k GTD, where 100 people get a ticket and 101st gets $125.
Is it worth sitting out now?

Ave stack was 5BB, I was UTG with 4BB, Min raised (they were getting through from everyone, everyone instantly knew it was KK/AA) then MP1 used full timebank and shoved for like 4.1BB's, got back to me and then i used my timebank desperately convincing myself he had QQ/AK. I spent 3 hours in a $5 satty to the $25R, then 4 hours in this $25R to finish 5 places away from my biggest ever tourney...
I think I played pretty well too and my stats were like 5/5 over 280 hands or soI've played in this one.
THe thing is, 'most likely' in the spot you were in here ^, chips gained aren't worth anywhere near the same value as 'chips lost' (due to it being a satellite). I'll often see newer satellite players making a common mistake - - still playing pots like there's some benefit to getting an even BIGGER stack (like they're getting paid more for 5th than they would be for 85th) while they're already sitting with a good one & it's likely unecessary.
I'm sure many others have made similiar mistakes in satellite play... I know I have.
sorry to hear that you didn't win the ticket (PS, last time I played it, I got it in w AQ vs AA... & didn't have a great stack.. but definitely not hurting either & was vs. a huge fish who was playing ~60% vpip)
You can actually sup. satty to that 50seat guar. starting off at 30cents. (I go the $3r/a route, 10seat guar.)
