Can’t believe it going to need coaching for this tournament any advice?? Please need advise never played in such a big tournament and I was folding AQs and pocket 88s and even AK at one point just to make the money but if I continue playing normal maybe I would have won the $109 ticket top 100 players got that and top 350 got the $11 ticket.

I was folding AQs and pocket 88s and even AK

Of course we'd need more details but those are quite premium hands which might have won you some additional chips?

Can’t believe it going to need coaching for this tournament any advice??

I am not the best person to give you advice since I have never played either but I can imagine that there are going to be also more skilled players in there.
So if I were you, I'd not play too loose, do not bluff too much but also not tighten up too much. The good news is that there might be less maniacs around. 😅

would have won the $109 ticket

That'd certainly have been a nice win!

What was the buy-in of the tournament and how many players in total?

My advice would be to analyze the other players and then decide on a range with that you will call / raise. Maybe even write it down. And then, when you got the cards, look down on your notes and play. Fear will make you loose for sure and it is impossible to win a tournament by playing only AAs. Also, keep in mind that you might loose nevertheless. Even top players loose most of the time.

the same when I play in a big tournament, nothing works out, but unlike you, I don't throw away such hands and lose, I understand that I'm doing something wrong, the tricks I do in cheap tournaments and freerolls don't go through and I fly out quickly, not to mention that almost no one bluffs in expensive tournaments, especially at the very beginning (apparently they don't want to fly out quickly, it's a shame) and closer to the prizes, so when there is an opportunity I play in cash or sit n go

The main reason for signing up for satellites is the opportunity to play in a major tournament that you can't afford with your current bankroll. For example, let's say you dream of playing the $109 Sunday Million at PokerStars. Winning such a tournament can bring money that will change your life. But you can't risk a hundred dollars. I win on room 888 sometimes tickets for $109 and $55 so 6-7 tickets a year.

It was a freeroll 2300 player’s top 350 get $11 ticket and top 100 get the $109 Sunday million ticket .

your'e thinking about it all wrong

dont think i had a good flip and missed the risk
think how many dead pots could I have picked up with nothing

Have fun and learn from mistakes. Realize your emotions and do what you've already learned.

After I won a big pot the realization that I could change my life hit me. I told my mom that I won a ticket and she said don’t tell me about a ticket show her the money.

you just don't have to be afraid if you have a king with an ace it's better to risk playing with them than you will later think why I didn't play with such a great hand I would have won so go ahead my friend don't be afraid
