As far as I know awk match function syntax is:
Code:
match (string, regexp)

I noticed that your are passing 3 arguments for match function which is wrong!

To get your expected output, you could simply do:
Code:
gawk -F'|' '
        {
                if ( $2 == "ok" )
                {
                        n = match ( $1, /bbbbb.*/ )
                        if ( n )
                        {
                                $1 = substr ( $1, RSTART, RLENGTH )
                        }
                }
        }
