I think you made the correct play. It's easy to look back and see your 6 flop and know you would've had the best hand, but it's better to wait for a better spot and get your chips in when you know you have the best hand. Personally, I think I would've made the call, but I do speculate on a lot of hands. Thanks!

yea I really debated but seeing a 3xbb raise then 2 instant callers I knew there were plenty of overs infront of me but I guess the 450 is wortht he chance at that 6 cuz had I called id woulda been top 7 o well tho im still alive

No I think you have to look at the risk reward factor..and with a pocket pair I would have called to see the flop..and ofcourse gotton out of the hand if I didnt see my trips
In order to win MTT you need to take calculated risks
I hope this wasnt too harsh and again its only my opinion

I agree with you 100% funny part is I think between 77 66 and 99 I got 66 about 6-7 times and same with 77 and a few times with 99 but I swear I hit the set 80% of the time and had I called that 450 I woulda had close to 7k and I learnd my lesson o well it all ended good hehe
