Out of curiosity - a question to Brian, and everyone else in general - if you are convinced they have AA, and end up laying do, would you show your hand?

No. Never.

No.

1) If they think I am capable of laying down KK, then they will attempt to run all kinds of moves past me (sure this can be good for you, but not a situation that I want).
2) If you show your KK and your opponent is a reasonable player, he imo is less liekly to show you his AA to validate your decision.

No free info.

I take the the view that taking a decision to never pass KK pre-flop is going to be more profitable for me in the long run than laying it down, but this theory is based on the fact that there is very little difference in the buyin/prize money structure of the tournaments I am playing.

In a 25K buyin ? wow, that would certainly get my pulse racing a litte Smiley



ya, needed new underwear after the hand

I WOULD HAVE SHOWN, would have shown the table I can get away from a hand, i almost turned them up and walked away, I am still happy w/ my play as I do not think I will ever lay them down pre-flop

I just folded them to a rereraise in a cash game, I was actually calling myself a fool while I did it and thinking i'd lost my bottle, but I just had a bad feeling about.

Luckily another guy called all in preflop and I got to see the AA, soundly beaten by all in mans 77 which hit a set.

I just don't think I could do it in a comp though - certainly not the ones I play in anyway.
