Not the first or the last time i have seen something like that. Some people are just idiots. Once i met one, he wanted to finish in such a tournament that everyone was getting the same ticket, in the first place. For what, to brag that you came first in a tournament that almost everyone had hit the brakes to get that ticket ?

I think some folks just can't resist the temptation of being the big winner... Just NO self control.
I watched some idiot tonight with $26,000+ in chips shove a few from the bubble in the $100K Priviledge and totally BLEW IT and bubbled out. He had enough chips to go DEEP DEEP DEEP, but just HAD to play like an a*****e....lol...
You wer happy for sure but I like to imagine the sit out plyer reaction when he'll realized that he is in the money Probably had a connection trouble and wasn't able to get back to the table, thinking it's over for his chance of being in the oney and then BANG hahaha Nice one

Yeah, pretty stupid call. But he had an ace, so it's not suprising. It's funny how some people have no concept of ICM or where they stand in the tournament. That's 100% a fold. I'd even say fold AAKK double suited, just because you're guaranteed to win just by folding every hand, so why bother risking it. Even if the super shorty manages to double up, they're still going to be fucked next orbit.

Yeah, you're right, wonder why they want to have more chips than others when they will get same prize??? at the finish all appera on 1st place and get a ticket, i think if you have 2x average chips you're qualified and you just need to fold any hand, except AA or why not, fold AA for win your ticket.

I have the chips to guarantee me a ticket in a tournament while close to the bubble and i wont fold the AA all in preflop? Of course i will. No question about that. The goal is the ticket. End of story.
