$ NL HE MTT: PokerStars $300 Weekend Freeroll Sunday, October 2nd at 1:00 pm, key hand.

I believe that from this hand, I managed to reach the final table.
I didn't have much to do, I was short on chips, and I think my all-in was normal under these circumstances, and of course the luck factor in poker helped me a lot.

You had one out for the river and you hit that, wow! Nice pot.

So sad for the AA guy that he was beat by two lower PPs.

Congratulations Gritz, as you said, the luck factor was fundamental, whoever went crazy was the opponent who had JJ

The guy from JJ and AA too, believing in doubling the chips and taking a cold shower.
That's why we can't complain when we take a bed beat, in this case I was happy with the doubling of my chips, but we never thought about the other side, here's a good example.

With 9BB effective it is indeed standard to open jam any pair from most seats of the table. Maybe 22-44 can be folded from the first two sets, but this jam was not even particularly close. Just a bit unlucky to run into two players with a higher pair, but the dealer saved you

It was a push or fold situation, so, it's well played from that position with no calls before.
A little bit of luck sometimes doesn't hurt
