Default final 100 of freeroll

well I had like 70 player points left in my party account so joined one of their 50 buy in freerolls. Right now about 1,000 over average chip size and about 100 people left top 25 get paid. I have caught some cards but when I did catch my gutshot or whatever I usually had overcards as possible outs and I had the chips to cover the bets and still have plenty if I lost.

I still suck but wish me luck anyway.

Default yep

now 3x the average and could probolly sit out to the money but since the bubble is $5 I will be pushing to put myself in position to win this thing. Of course winning it is only $35 so wont be some great big feat.

Didn't realize you were on the bubble there when I said you had to call. Depends what you were playing for. If you just wanted to make the money, you should have folded preflop. If, however, you were playing for the win, you made the right call.

I would of liked to cash but it was only for $5 and wanted to put myself in position to at least make final table. When I made the call I was really torn between calling or folding. In a ring game would of called without any hesitation but being on the bubble it was a really hard decision.

That was definately a good call, you had TPTK with a nut redraw, what the hell was HE doing betting bottom pair like that? Probably a simple bully move, and he got lucky.

ya he was trying to bully, he was doing this for last hour which is why I didnt respect his pre-flop raise. Looking back at it now though I believe I should of folded and picked a better spot.
