Default if its a freeroll

was in a freeroll last nite .....Ihad not played a hand in ohhh maybe 30 hands including my blinds I folded ....I finally get pocket kings I made an appropiate bet of 6x the BB the small blind reraises me 500 chips....I go all in with my final 7k in chips which would put this guy in to all but 2k of his chips....he calls me and turns over a king 2....I am thinking great I double up ....noooooooooooo....the flop is q 2 2 ...he has a set of two's and I am now outof the tourny....

The guy had nothing and totally ignored the dust on my chips, my tight play and the allin reraise....I can only assume that the same scenario in a buyin would have caused a fold/laydown...but not in a freeroll....but and I see this alot in freerolls, how can you fight your way thru 80 to 90% of the players to still play allin with nothing.

You can fight your way through the field BECAUSE they play ragged hands. You win that hand almost every time.

Slow-play when you know that an overly aggressive player will fall for it, otherwise I would say to make sure you value bet.

Dude, thats just some of the worst poker playing on that guys part. K2?!!??

A freeroll is a freeroll, and people have a tendency to play horribly no matter how far along in the tourney it is. And Agreen is right, you win that hand mostly everytime.....very bad luck.. At least it didnt cost you anything
