Is this on a site which has an All-in button? Just might be a mis-click. Call to find out.

Depends on his previous play, no read, I call...

[doubleup]

If he does this with AA/KK/AK, you are a slght favorite. but ppl who do this have AA a lot, in fact I've never seen anyone do this with QQ.  Unless you've raised pre-flop for 10 of the last 20 hands and given the impression that you are a maniac, I'd be inclined to pass.

Cash game instacallage.

[boldie]

I can't fold KK pre-flop to this sort of push by one guy in a short handed cash game if he has only been playing 21 hands. I know it's a popular way to play Aces pre-flop but I have seen too many people lay JJ this way pre-flop aswell.

[Longy]

I call. Need a solid read to pass, this guy is running 43/5 (only 21 hands i know) indicates he isn't exactly the best, so i call and expect to be ahead.

[Bongo]

That means, he's played 8/9 hands in about 3.5 orbits, it's not that many, he could have just had a pretty good run of cards. He has only raised once in that time as well, so it's not like he's been really aggressive preflop!

[GlasgowBandit]

Insta call. 

[kinboshi]

So is the optimum way to play AA pre-flop in a cash game to shove?

[Bongo]

If you can get a caller then yes, it's ideal.

Most of the time you don't though, unless someone has KK.

The original post, and the replies are very similar to Kinboshi's post about calling with KK after a re-reaise from 400 to 10,000 in an APAT event...

there is a massive difference between a cash game and a tourney though. Tounryes yo get knocked out of..cash you just reload

[Bongo]

Just because you can reload doesn't mean you should make a bad call. You can always go onto the next tournament anyway.

In a tournament you have to win all the chips (and so does everyone else) in a cash game you can do very nicely just by winning some, an approach that would lead to you blinding out in a tournament!
