[redmast]

I'm already out and was left without a prize. Unfortunately in this tournament there are fools. Player from canada on my АQ cast in Allin received the A9 and 99988.

Lost a coinflip pre flop all in in the end.
Got a good start and was all in the first hand with a set of jacks on the flop, but second hand a lost a part of that stack already against someone with a set of twos.
The blinds went up really fast imho.
I mean, the 5 minutes is quite ok, but every time the blinds went up, the size was much bigger than the previous level.
Ah, well, at least I got 9.90 $

Get ITM then unleash the Kraken.

What's happened to the Kraken? Did he fall into a coma?

 

[MarceloMC]

Last $1 MM Freeroll I got $25 but this one was horrible as I was in a table with a Donk shoving any hand and I received KK and raised and the Donk reverted with another "donk shove" with K8 dominated by my hand but pokerstars helped the Donk with one 8 in the flop and another 8 at the River!! So GG before ITM...

 

[KidCarter93]

Just busted out in 18873rd for $12.40. Was down at 5.5k with blinds at 500/1000 and picked up JTh. Shoved and got called by QQ.
Wasn't the best spot to shove but figured I should try and garner some chips while I could

 

[Martin]

Finished 14444th for $15.50 shoved JJ, called by AQ Q on the flop.

 

[NightFun]

I made $20 last time, but today hit a big cooler on the bigger blinds and came out with 5 bucks, better than $0 GL to all still in!

Well done Martin!

75 509 my place was. People said it was bad beat, but was there any suggestion other than I do? I had AA, stack was 2890, preflop was call (opp had 8850) on my raise of 450 (BB was 150). On flop I had caught the set, and there was not any visible dro. My opp was betting 3K -- so I thought, I had enough chances. But that was wrong. Opp had Q3s. And turn with river was gave him his color... (f) it all! Tell me, was I wrong to call that all-in?

 

[enolan]

What's happened to the Kraken? Did he fall into a coma?

The Kraken fell at $15.50. I guess he was in a coma.

How did you do?

I think I got $15 too.

The "coma" was in reference to the timing out/folding

Not at all wrong. AA is the best bet to win Serious Chips. You just had one of those rare cases where AA does not favor you. Relax buddy, don't be upset about it. This time it dint happen, Next time it will:icon_thum

With any luck, it could have been more. But I am satisfied.

Nice succeeses everyone , concratulations to everybody ...I had 1 time AA 2 times KK and I couldn't get not even the 5$... I forgot to get on time on my pc so I lost the first KK ,sb shoved I would have called if I was there , then when I started playing , the raises I made on the KK first and later on the AA weren't called , misfortune , but I made the final stupid step I was 1 or 2 min away from the bubble but I had a great chance to steal blinds , at least that's what I thought , I had AK and I raised the big blind , the big F called ,no A or figure on the flop just 99x , I SHOVED , HE flopped set and sent me home . I thought 5$ I had them , but to keep on for sth better I needed these blinds. but I should have raised all in preflop or fold cause he called with Q9 or sth like that ...

He probably wouldn't have shoved if you were there, but saw you were sitting out, so easy stealing.

then when I started playing , the raises I made on the KK first and later on the AA weren't called , misfortune ,

Bad luck indeed, especially in freerolls, there is usually some caller, when you make a normal sized raise.

but I made the final stupid step I was 1 or 2 min away from the bubble but I had a great chance to steal blinds , at least that's what I thought , I had AK and I raised the big blind , the big F called ,no A or figure on the flop just 99x , I SHOVED , HE flopped set and sent me home .

Trips are indeed not really expected a lot of times, but easier to see than a set.
It all depends on how much big blinds you had, but if you really needed to get those blinds, it probably is because you didn't have much left, in which case all in would have been appropriate. Also, if you felt pot committed to call there, all in pre was better indeed.
