Too bad, but the magic 666 always appears when you dont have one. On the other hand, AKs makes me feel that something's wrong with. especially when they're dealt in my BB. About the other player's imagination there's something like 'He bluffs me with KQ or pocket 33, so I have the second strongest card, let him burn'. It happens. But I expected that such kind of playing, calling with 67s, cannot be seen in The hot 4'40, or somewhere You need good starting hand to shove and risk your play.

Well it´s hard to get inside the head of a kamikaze player but in this case he was taking you for a bluffer Don´t think you did anything wrong is one of those hands Next time you will take his chips and win That´s poker some time mean and sometime great

The hand would have turned out great for you if the six hadn't come on the river but you're right......when this happens all you can do is shrug it off and move onto the next hand.

I see this kind of play everyday. There are a lot of players that would bet any amount even all in preflop with any two suited cards especially if they are connected.
It always make me made when i see that because in my mind crao cards even suited are still craps but its not the case for many.

Is hard to see that, but or in freerolls or other tourneys there will be allways a bad and good plays, and players, fish and pros, and in this hand specific, you had bad luck, because you play like the rules/book said, but he hit on the river the magic card. But dont worry in this tourney he had this, you are the next on the next tourney that you play, this is poker, sometimes have luck or a good play, another times is hard to see, but keep playing and improving your poker skill and you will see good things happening.
