This is the curse of the freeroll i'm afraid. I bet we have all seen this so many times over the years and i am never surprised anymore when it happens to me( it still winds me up though!!!). Unlucky again to you

fcuk yeah- these dudes are my hero's. imagine how fun it is to knock out a dude who was playing tight for a few hours, folding all the hands and waiting for his premium ones with fcukin 26 off... hahahahaha absolute ecstasy. sorry callie that you were on the wrong side of things here, next time try to launch an attack with 26 off for yourself.

Yes , this spot feels bad , but yes this is poker , i wish that everytime i had aces people went all in with 26 offsuit.. In the end these kind of people are the people you WANT to be playing.
Keep cool , the next time you will be on the right side of this one with your aces.

Losing like this with your aces drives you crazy. You would prefer to lose from the AQ with a straight for example than this. Unfortunately there are many players like this, just to make your good games, less frequent
today I took a similar story I was ready to flush and his opponent did not have anything, and here comes another 2 cards, and suddenly I see that I have not the winning hand and just a normal flush against the full house who came to what that ass with a ridiculous card on hand ... sorry but that's okay ... it's poker

There are almost always seemingly below-average players like your opponent who have accumulated chips by lucking out (or whatever). Sometimes they even manage to take down the tournament!

This happens a lot on Pokerstars with freerolls and micro stakes tournaments. The other day I was playing $500 daily after the bubble burst pick up AA player shoves with A6 off and hits a 6 high flush on the river. In freerolls on Stars anything goes garbage hands win alot of times against premium hands.

Callie...... Remember poker is about probability and the amount of money a person wishes to gamble based on that probability. There is no rule against betting a load of money on the remote chance of 62o winning... Crazy odds but maybe that makes it worth it in some people's minds. Without seeing the whole hand it's difficult to call on what happened but........ It's a good example of making the wrong poker etiquette call at the right time.
