At least I'm not sorry I lost with good first hand cards.

Yes, many times the last time a pair of Ace against a pair of 66, the villain won me with a trio of 6 on the river, but these hands have to be played, because just as he made me lose on this occasion in others I managed to win and mount a good lot of chips for the rest of the tournament.

Yes, it happens at an early stage, but alas, there is no getting away from it.

In normal tourneys i can not remember that i loose the first hand. But it is not impossible, that i loose the first hand. In freeroll sometimes i call hands in which i think im the favorite, mostly i win those hands, but sometimes i loss, especially multi way.

Sure, but it's mostly happens in hyper turbo tourneys and spin&gos. In those type of tourneys as blinds get higher fast you're tend to play on wide ranges, so any pair or most offsuit ace combinations are good enough to go. Luck play big role there, so I'm not much fan of that. Even lately yesterday, I lost first hands with AKs against AJ, 88vs Q4s at spin&go. Also I remember losing first hand with AK at big tournament in threeway flop and lost. It was a bad call maybe even though AK were favourite. It happens to all of us.

Yes, I was caught first hand a few times, but I was caught with good AA AK AJ cards, several books that you couldn't not give all in.

Falling into traps is an inevitable situation in poker, sooner or later everyone falls into it, poker is such a game that different cool situations are possible, that's why we love this game.

I have busted on the first hand several times with cards like KK or AA. It is almost to the point now that I feel like sitting out the first 10 or so hands until all the looney tunes have had their few moments of fun and attempt at fame. By then the game usually has settled down.

Several times I have already been eliminated in the first leg. This is normal. If you have a pair of AA or KK it is difficult to stand when someone goes all in. Anyone who gets eliminated like that has no way, did what should have been done.

I have noticed that there is a lot of overshoot in the first hands, and I prefer to play very tight at the beginning of a tournament.

Three four times ... and gone there.in .rason I got the aces and THE hand came to me with two attackers who put them all and I had to pay. only in one of Ella's I continue in the tournament ... but I do not recommend going in the first hand with all. Of course only with the hand of aces.
