    People are experts because they get some. What's the buy-in, what country are they from, how did the button get his stack?

    I'm folding in a $100 though.

    actually they arent as good as you might think, and i wrote no reads above because i just been moved to the table ...

    Fold. Unless you can put everybody on a very wide range(that they would push with) and the first two go in, you won't have the odds to call.

    Its a pretty funny hand, the old adage says that 3 bets are almost always Aces or kings this was 4 bets i mean wtf, im sitting there with queens and i definately dont like them at all so i fold

    The subject line is because you will NEVER guess what hands they had =)

    pretty amazing what a high percentage of the hands posted in this forum involve people who just got moved to the table

    you guys must get moved 5x more often than I do

    Poker players always tell the truth.
    Playing big pots at small stakes.

    anyways the hands they had all in was 55 vs 99 vs AKs, so i made a small mistake by laying the hand down, but i did get 3rd place in the end when my KK failed to hold up against A9...

    No way was that you with the QQ? Because that was me on the BTN there with 5-5 in that $100US freeroll on Fulltilt the other day. WOW... what a coincidence!

    is this a $100 tournie or is it a freeroll with $100 prize fund? The hands sound like the free roll. In which case its an easy call and the hands are not in the slightest surprising. I would easily move all in with the 99 and the AK here. but hey this hand is for experts so that counts me out.

    There are 3 low stakes MTTs that kick off on Stars around 9PM so if I am in a hotel I will play in them. It seems like on one of them I get moved to a different table about every 20 minutes or so.
    Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.

    Just to clarify it was a MTT with 100$ BI not a frikkin freeroll

    I am not an expert but 9 Handed table no reads with on the table I would probably fold with that much raises preflop there is probably somebody who will call and you could wait for KK/AA preflop or when you have a read on the players.

    in that case its a fold

    So obviously your good enough to lay QQ down here. Regardless of what they had it was a good fold. Don't be result orientated, if one of them showed up with KK or AA you would be patting yourself on the back.
