If you were playing for 1 mill HU and the opposing player anounced that he was going all in everytime and putting his cards on their back everyhand before you make your decision.

Antes and blinds are negligible.

1st hand he announces all in and turns over 72o, you look down and see the beautiful ACES.

Do you call or fold?

Call. %ages demand it. If you weren't going to call in that situation you shouldn't be in the game.

Ok so where did I go wrong in the answer?

I would call with aces vs any two here. If he gets lucky, I'll just shoot him. Smiley
