ul man, if I have AA last thing I wanna get called by is another PP, i dunno what the actual stats are, maybe suited connecters are more likely to get you busted. But i know it's something like 1/8 of flopping a set with PP, so if there's two of you with a PP that's 1/4 and that's just the flop, I suppose by the river there's about a 1/3 chance one of you has hit the set.

I lost so much time with AA ... i think i lost more times even i won with them , that's just sad. Think when you got AA go all-in after someone bet and loose against 4/3 NOT SUITED! (he got ofc 2 pairs). Your enemy 3/3 looks rlly nice.

Yep only 3 live players at my table to ....... so really slow going ..... especially as blinds starting off were 5 10 i think ...... unfortunately was tired so found it hard to focus so when i called a raise and flopped the ace high flush draw i gambled not on flop but on turn ... on flop the raiser bet real strong (there was a king on the flop) i called and on turn he pushed all in and i called, no club on river and i was out ..... hopefully next time ill play better and wont be as tired as i really wasnt in the mood to play being tired.
But thanks Bigbet for the tourney and hopefully there will be more

I played this freeroll too. Out of 182 participants may be 40 were actually playing. In the beginning each table had like 3 guys playing and 7 sitting out. After 3 hours I finished 4th after all for 40 $.
i had aces in bb blinds are 20/40.cutoff raises to 160 with queens sb calls all in with q9.i repop to 500. cutoff call.flop qxx. one outer and im out of the freeroll
Posted by photolong: well done schmoyster $40 is nice for a freeroll infact these freerolls are great value .... so i hope to see more of them.
Thank you. I figured that the freeroll will be a great value. I didn't play freerolls for quite a while. And I had serious doubts about joining this one because it started at 1am my local time. But then I decided to torture myself a little bit. I have real money on three other sites and I am a winning player on all of them. I didn't really plan to join another site but I joined Bankrollmob because of the forum. I didn't take any NDB for four months. But then I thought... What the hell? I joined an NDB site and I didn't take a single one. What am I doing here? So, I decided to take NDB and Big Bet was (and still is) the only one available for Russian members. I received 10 $ of NDB first days of November. Played two sessions of cash games (Nov 5 and Nov 10) and increased my bankroll to 20.41 $. Yesterday I got 40$ from the freerolls. So now I have 60.41$. Now I wonder if I should play more on this site.
PS Correction. Now Celeb Poker NDB is also available for Russians

Pretty fun tourney, although i went out in a bad way, had KJs in the BB, everybody folds, button pops it to 4BB's, i'm pretty sure he's trying to steal since i seen him raise the last 2 buttons with crap like T7s & 84o, so im deff calling. Anyway i flop trip jacks, he makes a big cbet & i raise all in on a pretty scary board with 2 jacks & 2 .... well he instacalls with KK(!!), 2 running , & him having the K means im out somewhere around 70th or so. Was fun though, will be looking forward to the next whenever it may be!
