Message: [QUOTE="1122phoenix, post: 776980, member: 35793"] On freerolls the first couple of hands are usually like that, but by the blind levels you are about 20-30 minutes into the tourney and players have invested time if not money into it, and this kind of DONK chase is not as common. Unfortunately, this is one of those cases, and he catches. I find when you get to the top 3% the game actually gets good because you're now 3+ hours into the tourney and don't want to be on the wrong side of the bubble. Now all the stuff that makes poker interesting comes into play - player profiling, playing your position, deciding whether to even play a hand because a player to act after you, just lost 90% of his stack in the previous hand and may just shove the remainder of his chips, is the table chip leader a bully and what is the range of cards he is raising with ? - all the nuace and decisions that make poker interesting.
