Ok, look. You are first position you raise 99 which is ok. But then you have a reraise and another all in and you call. Why? You should fold JJ in that spot as well, AQ etc. Cheers.
It's a free roll man its going to be a lot looser, you can't complain about the AK caller, would you have made that same move in a cash game? I can't see it.

I saw so much unbelievable suckouts in the last years at this site and the most another online poker rooms. It was really only a big fake, i never hit only one time a good run and i believe i play solid abc poker with some experience. But i think it is not really a problem, i like this game and play only freerolls and some sats.
Yes, you should play looser, but overcalling 2 all in´s (even if you know they are both crazy) with pocket nines isn´t good. Some people don´t take freerolls seriously and they just "gamble" and sometimes they get lucky.

Hi mate, looks like it is just variance and you cannot do anything about that because it is bound to happens and the best way to counter this is to work on your mental game and play a lot. Volume is also key here because it will helps you get used to those swings also if you work on your metal game you will see those things as nothing but variance and can play more and not lose money.

He has 9 BBs left. There is absolutely no way he should raise fold with 99 with that short a stack. In this situation he should have shoved all in pre flop from the off and hope that hands like AK call and you can win a race.
Min raising with 9 BBs out of position and folding is the most stupid thing you can possibly do.
The correct play would be all in pre flop and given that the idiot called with 10-5 there is not a lot you can do about it, you have to just bite the bullet.

+1
He had actually more like 13 blinds, but from tht position with 99 is all in for sure doesnt matter 9 or 13bb. With 15 you can open raise but hardly you can fold and as we can see, he would be mistaken to fold there since he had best hand. With 18+ blinds I would say you can fold to all in and call in that spot. However, someone misread hand. He did not call 2 all ins. He 4bet shoved into 3 guys. Difference is huge. So, if he did not open shoved 99 from utg then he played rest of hand well. Anyway, its freeroll, and that wasnt even bad beat at all. And please dont be angry on 105 guy. You should be happy that kind of people play poker. Yes they win lot of times but that is nature of poker. AK vs AJ wont win 3rd time and 23 will win against AK every 3rd time (so you will win 2 times and lose one) and thats really often! So if you end up having dominating A 100 times you will win 70 times and you will say I GOT HIM. But you will also lose (or chop, which is frustrating almost the same) 30 times. And it will hurt. And you will remember. And you will say: I LOSE ALL THE TIME! If you like playing poker but you are frustrated thinking its conspiracy against you and its rigged please listen my advice: Buy HOLDEM MANAGER (or similar software). You will have there adjusted $EV and chipEV. If it shows that you lost more then you should, over small example then youre in downswing. If it shows that over HUGE example then youre right! Its JokerStars! Go then to 2+2 and give that data to poker community! I will be first to quit playing poker! On other side if its shoving you that your winnings are close to EV then you should rethink about odds in poker and quit whining and start improving your game!

i agree with OP - it's getting worst at jokerstars by the day: today is monday and i can testify that today is far worse on jokerstars than it was on sunday, and we can't even compare situation that was on jokerstars on sunday with complete bullsh1t that was witnessed on jokerstars on saturday... man when is it gonna stop
Lol got a more better jokerstars moment. Was playing Sit&Go 9players. I had AK suited, the big stack holder in early position raised to 800 when blinds were 50-100. I went all in he called with 7 3.. What happens on jokerstars? Indeed on the river a 3 Bah bah, every time on pokerstars you can feel it that on the river you'll be beaten
You played it right if the donk player with 105 folds then you win the hand simple as that the only other way too play it is too shove pre flop it's a free roll so expect people too shove with garbage had similar thing happen too me on 888poker free roll get 1010 i call a shove player flips over 66 and a miracle straight on the river that's poker and s**t happens GL
Need to return on the basic and be more partient
