    IMO you could have avoided this situation. Yea aces are a good hand but they are not unbeatable. You should have just called preflop, if a 3 flops just fold the hand and move on. You would have saved your tourny life if you had have done that. On the surface it looks like you got unlucky but you could have prevented it. GL

    I cant tell if you are being sarcastic or not, but my strategy would have worked better in this situation. You dont have to go broke with aces everytime here, dont overvalue aces. #1 thing i see donkeys do.
