Rounder's Freeroll

i played yesterday at Poker.com on a rounders radio freeroll and thought that i was already a sure winner to win the winner take all $60 and a $60 coupon for a freeroll and was already thinking that it was a third win for me at their freeroll. I had more than 120,000 chips and there were only 2 of us playing and my opponent had only more than 2,500 against my 120,000 chips and still i lost , suddenly my luck change and my cards cant win anything. there was even a hand that i had KK and the flop came and it was Q,10,A and the a K came out and gave me 3 of a kind but then when he showed his hand he had AA damn , and slowly he got every chip i had and i lost never won a hand , just my luck!

oh boy thats really got to suck. well better luck next time. not a good way to go out thinking u were gonna win it all. all people need is a chips and chair.

Don't feel bad one time I had 235,000 chips to a guys 4,600 chips and guess what I lost to him. The game was at fulltilt. That made me lose 750 dollars.

chip and a chair that guy had....
well somtimes lucky is not on your side at the poker table..

well i know what happened to u. u got big stack power and he got u on a few double ups and the rest is history. wow 750 thats alot. i would have played a bit smarter knowing that. lol ur still a good player. hopefully u learned not to play that way again.

wow

thats is a true story of a chip and a chair lolol that hurts herlis i have come close placed 6th 5th and 11th in them i stopped playing in them


but yea the whole chip and a chair thing i like to come back from behind i think thats were i play my best poker if i get to far ahead i play uber loose compared to my alredy aggresive play so thats my take on it

LOL...dallas , guess you just said that im not alone ...LOL i dont feel bad not anymore right now but after the game i was really upset...LOL

im gonna go out on a limb here and say that you shoved every hand?
i atleast hope you did if he only had 2500 and you have 120,000...i know i would shove every hand...even if i has 23 offsuit i dont care
the odds of him winning like 20 hands in a row are rediculous...even if he gets dealt AA once every 5

my best live poker win was when i was still in hs, and i had 11 chips left heads up in a home game tourney, i shoved 4 times in a row and got lucky enough to win all four times...then i picked up Aces and Kings back to back and just like that i was back in it...

thats exactly what i did without thinking shoot his chips every hand , only thing was he won most of the hands even if i had the better whole cards .

one thing i forgot to mention was that it was a Horse game so i can only raise every hand and not shoot his chips...lol m sorry i forgot.

yeah i did a comback in the ndnpt. i went from dead last early with like 120 chips to come back and take second. i think that was a good comeback. i lost to arsenal that game. one fo his good wins.

A chip in a chair and some luck. That's what the saying should be instead of a chip and a chair. Because a chip and a chair won't always win, but throw in some luck and it's most likely to help indeed.

Don't feel bad about this... this happens to me more often than not. Thats why I wrote a post about "The power of sitting out". The only problem is that you can't do that when its winner takes all. I can't stand these kind of tourneys (unless I win of course :smile:). Anyway, If I were you, I would have just pushed every hand also... if you have that kind of lead, he would have to win like 15 hands in a row to win the tourney.

better luck next time that sucks from lst to first ouch
