RTR Freeroll

Today was my 3rd RTR Freeroll.

I went out fugly in the first one: QQ v JJ. JJ actually RERAISED me PF and luckbox hit a set on flop. NH, GG, IGHN.

I moneyed in the second one. I need to look but I'm pretty sure I went out with 88 in that one, too. NOTE: I hate FTP hand histories; when you bust out as the table breaks that hand doesn't get written into hand history file. I have no record of my last hand. Sigh.

I was lucky enough to get a dead table for this first couple levels in the RTR freeroll. I stole a ton of blinds before one player showed up. We agreed to share the blinds. Then another guy showed up and that agreement went out the window.

I was playing tight on my 4th table when I got 88. I played it horribly but it's so hard to let go of a set. No way I put this guy on 9T. I should have pushed on flop but I didn't - the end result would have been the same though. That turn actually gave me a chance to save my chips but I didn't listen to what he was saying to me.
