Which situation do you usually get knocked out of tourneys on?

Question

Holding AA, KK, QQ

Holding AK, AQ

Top pair

On the straight/flush draw

Middle/low pocket pairs

Bluffing/Trying to steal the blinds

For me it's nearly always middle/low pocket pair. I lose a lot with AK/AA/KK as well, but they also keep me in tourneys more often than losing.

Answer 1

usually two pair....seems like someone usually beats me on the river with cards like 3-8off when they shouldn't have been in the pot to begin with.  especially with pre-flop raises.  but then again, they are still in the tourney and i'm out so oh well.

Answer 2

Straight draw or two pair.

Open ended straight draw with chips getting a bit low.

Hard to fold two high pair.
