Post by: Scottish Dave on July 28, 2006, 04:18:16 PM i dont think in a tourney like the one you were playing, i could ever lay down KK preflop, your looking at a 220-1 shot that your KK runs into AA, if you do, its just tough titty - altho at least you will know the next 219 times you get KK none of your opponents will have AA!
...Or at least thats how the law of averages on this planet is supposed to work Title: Re: KK v AA....

Having said all that they are Kings! What i want to know is why on earth u flat call pre flop?!?! Title: Re: KK v AA.... Post by: I, Zimbra on July 28, 2006, 06:06:11 PM Yep, get it all-in preflop, then deep sigh and reach for the red pen when you see it's AA and not QQ or AK. (or, on Tribeca, J-J, 7-7, 9-8 suited... or pretty much anything else... ;goodvevil;)

I nearly threw KK away once in a £30 SNG on Crypto, I raised in EP, got re-raised, I re-re-raised, he re-re-re-raised, and I thought "he has aces" so I moved all-in, he insta-called with the other two kings. I four-flushed. :D Title: Re: KK v AA.... Post by: Trix on July 29, 2006, 04:18:02 PM "I thought "he has aces" so I moved all-in"

There is around a 1/24 that someone else at the table has AA Title: Re: KK v AA....

What i want to know is why on earth u flat call pre flop?!?! so the play would have been to go over the top again and go allin? thanks for the advice Title: Re: KK v AA.... Post by: I, Zimbra on August 02, 2006, 06:52:13 PM I tend to feel that
- if I have KK and someone else has AA; or - if I have QQ and someone else has AA or KK, then it's just not my tournament. After all, if he does have AA, the only way you get away from your KK on the flop (realistically) is if an ace hits; and he has two of those already. So the most likely outcome is that it will go in on the flop anyway. Title: Re: KK v AA....
