I've just spent 3+hrs playing in a $3 MTT, i didn't need to re-buy and i didn't use an add-on and this is what happened to me...
I've got JJ in the SB, 1 guy calls the rest fold and when it gets round to me i raise it 3xBB. at this point no-one wants to finish 11th and miss out so everyone is playing real tight and i figure the BB and the caller are going to fold. The BB does as expected and gets out the way but the caller waits for a bit before going all in. I've got around 18,000 chips, the blinds are at 1500/3000 and are about to go up to 2000/4000. Half my stack is in the pot, the blinds will kill me if i fold so i go all in. the guy has AK and he catches KK on the flop :frown: . Beaten by a better hand, still feel sick though.
I'm looking on the bright side, i was only playing in that tourney because i finished 2nd in 2$ STT earlier winning 7.50$ and then winning around 25$ in a cash game.
