32K pot against Bld with 8 high? toughest decision I've ever had!

[samoleus]

Guys, sorry for the anticlimax, but I folded the hand. I figured that Bld would fold a set there about 50% of the time (more often 222, less often 777 of course), which makes it close to an even decision. However, there were two factors that tilted my decision towards a fold.

(1) there was a chance (I'd say about 10-15%) that HE had 3-4 himself.

(2) I let my time run all the way down before I made my decision. If I had acted even with 5 seconds left, he might be convinced into thinking that it was me putting on an act with the nuts. But I really waited until literally 1 or 2 seconds left. I thought that was too long.

Why would you play AA like this but not, say, KK?

What hands do you call with here?

What hands do you push with here?

Fold Turn, LOL

Nice hand, I have often decided to not bet because I took longer than usual to type in the amount or think about it.

Tease

bld we can get what you had and what you would have done against a push?

or if you can't give that away then one or the other? either what you had or what you would have done had you had 77 and/or 22?

please?

[samoleus]

hard to say for sure - but I almost certainly push with AA and JJ. I'll double him up if he has 3-4 and I have one of those two hands.

WE NEED BLD TO TELL US WHAT HE HAD
