Recently I was in the GGPoker Overlay Masters 10M GTR tournament, it was 570/1300. I would literally be on Day 2 if I had held my chips. However, I called a 3bet with JJ and made a set on the FLOP, villain bet big, and I went all-in because I had a set. The unexpected happened, he hit the turn and I was out of the tournament. I know he could have AQ, but at the time I didn't think he was going all-in because I was nervous. And oh, what would you do in the same situation?

Hi SagwAA,
Welcome to PokerStrategy.com :welcome:

I moved this post to the "Hand Discussions for Tournaments" board.
You play sounds normal.
A good play is a good play regardless of what comes later.
Without knowing the rest of the cards on the flop, turn and river, no-one can say for sure, but it is hard to get away from a set.

You can post the hand from pokercraft here so we can see the full hand history and give you a more accurate feedback. It's important to know all the facts before we give our input, but as VorpalF2F said sometimes is hard to get away from a set.

Without stack information it's tough to give feedback, but in general I would try to get all the chips in the middle as well with a set on the flop. Just a unlucky hand in the end.
