Folding Aces Preflop
 

I was playing a WSOP semi-finals qualifier last night when I was brought to a decision in which i think i made a great laydown. There was 1 person to go before the seats were given away to the WSOP finals tourny and i wasnt about to be the bubble boy.

UG - $47000 - raises to 4400 - ?
MP1 - $13000 - folds
MP2 - $27200 - folds
ME - $39800 - reraise to 10000 - AA
CO - $71100 - reraise All In - AK
SB - $19900 - Call All In - 1010
BB - $42000 - Call All In - KK

The UG original raiser folded and i actually sat and thought about it. 1 person to go out and the tourny was over, the seats were given out, and I would be in the finals. So with 3 all-ins in front of me i folded my AA.

Here are the results:

Flop: 7 8 K
Turn: J
River: 9

CO is under 30k with K's
SB is over 60k with a straight
BB stays about the same with a swt of K's
And i would have been eliminated!

2 hands later the last player was eliminated and my ticket was stamped. So was it a good play laying down aces preflop? I think so. Will i ever do it again? Probably not!

Standard.

Id fold Aces there everytime if there are going to be multiple people all-in. Let them [censored] themselves rather than u getting [censored].

Re: Folding Aces Preflop
 

pretty obvious fold.

COs raise was absolutely terrible.

BBs call is questionable as well.

The cards would have been different had you have called. Or paused for a millisecond... or anything...
