Default Re: Would u fold AKs preflop? - i did

Dear All,

ill try to summaries the post and the hand again i just looked back the tourn stats at PokerOffice and ill try to explain that why did i fold that, i made the post bc i have never folded AK preflop when there were not two or three allin before me. It happened like once or twice around the bubble.

But now i was pretty sure that im making a good laydown. (not counting that i doubled up in the next hand with a floped nut flush).

So my reasons were:

1. my saw flop was 17%, pfr was:14% (i was TAG)

2. i have never raised from SB

3. Deill was TAG too

4. its true that my 400 raise was a bit weak 500 would have been better, but at that table from me it represented enough strength or a trap, so they had to put me on JJ+

5. i didnt count with the BB i played that hand against the limpers, so he screwed my original plan, and i when i loose the controll over the pot i like to fold and pick a nother opportunity to build my stack.

6. and Deill instant all-in showed not much fear so i felt like he has AA KK, i just had that feeling i know its a bit lame, but i had the read.

7. if he had AK too which is the more likely. he had the better position and with same cards the position has to win [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

and one more thing. i do like better outplay my opponents than decide a tournament in a preflop battle.

ty all the answers from the respected members.
