Just about to hit the bubble. Sitting in 52nd with 28k stack.
Should be a good run if I can play smart.
------------ Well that was massive blow up, again.
Got gutted two out of three hands and my soul crushed.
Had pocket queens and get it after flop against J 9 and she spiked two pair on river.
Would have had 93 k and top 15 if held up.
Then pushed with A J out of frustration and the guy has Pocket Aces. Board does nothing for me and I'm done. Finished 1154 for a .33 cent payout but after chip add on it's a .03 cent profit. Yay me !
F**k that hurt. Oh well live and learn for next time. So I keep telling myself but I keep making the same mistake. Isn't that the definition of crazy ?

I actually sat in a Pokerschool pro session where they say they add-on whenever they can as it gives them more chips to play with and use to there advantage.
To each there own I guess but If a pro states it, probably has some merit to it.
I made money back and gained some more experience, not all bad from my part.

I am playing satelites for a lot of tournaments... ( I almoust never buy in to tournament ) and trust me I almoust never use rebuy or add on... You should use it only in one situation, when you are slightly above average than add on is ok to use, because if you have little chips add on wouldnt help you so much, only you will lose money, and if you have big stack, there is no point of spending more money to have slightly larger stack.... I just satelite my way in MM 12 and I didnt use rebuy or add on... got my ticket for 3,30$ tournament for 0,11$ , so trust me dont use add on or rebuy expecialy on freeroll... I started thread about 1 month ago about rebuy or add on on that privilage tournament and I tell that I dont get people that use rebuy or add on on freeroll O.o

These 100K privilege tournaments are the same as PSO open league one they are all in fest and very hard to play. I railedc you for a while and saw at least two unlucky beat due to donk players. I agree with sthep on rebuy and add on they usually not whorted. As a consolation for you the SNG was very good in winning it.
