Important Lesson on Why You Should Never Truly Go Allin

[DCJ311]

Not sure why this got moved into a different forum, moderators care to explain?

It seems that some posters didn't even take into account the fact that I got 3rd place (in the money) in this sit and go. The whole idea of making the raise was to give myself the added equity of sneaking into the money in case 3-4 players go all in.

Understanding that Premier generally will have a VERY strong hand to call there (AA-QQ, AK), and knowing that the other raiser/s had to have at least JJ-AA, my hand was pretty much drawing dead (5% winning expectation roughly), I have better equity in folding and hoping to sneak into the money.

More importantly I was just trying to check it down like a gentleman but obviously they were having none of it.
