I think that free games are a recipe to lose your chips because these are hands you would never play normally. Even though, we were in the money so I played a little looser. I think I misinterpreted the opponent's raises and should have folded...

Hello,

Nice hand, well played. You have to bet potsize for protection from any kind of draws, it's draw-heavy board.

Best regards,

Hi all,

Nice hand well played. Never fold two pair with such shallow stacks (your stacks are small compared to the already large size of the pot).
