I just had a nice run in a Stars FPP freeroll where they gave 5 seats over a field of 1,700 runners or so. I finished 100th. I was among the chip leaders for some time, but the ever-increasing blinds took their toll. There were short-stacks who were pushing on a wide range. I doubled up people with AT losing to QJ, AK losing to 66, 22 losing to a very short AT, AQ losing to 99 and finally busting with AQ against TT. I had 5 straight coinflips and lost them all.
I actually think I played pretty well and extracted the max chips when ahead and kept down my losses when behind. I’d still rather have won. 😉
