So I was playing in today's Freeroll on bodog, in which I won $1.20 (thanks cardschat ). As every freeroll, towards the beginning of the tournament everyone plays loosey goosey. Towards the end, probably 7 or 8 places before the bubble and everyone pays out, the play noticeably tightens up. I was dealt AQ diamonds in the 5 spot of 9 people, and raise the blind about 3.5 times the BB. The big blind goes all in and the amount was about double what I just put in. I decided to call, and he shows 7's. My AQ doesn't hit, and I lose the hand. It cut about half my chip stack. Two characters decide to rag on me until the next break in how horrible of a call that was on my part and how AQ suited isn't even a good hand at all. I know I'm no where near a pro in skills (nor bank roll for that matter), but honestly, was my play ridiculous? And is AQ suited really a bad hand? I certainly was pleased with the play even though I lost, but those two guys really thought differently. Thoughts?
