Default Re: When to Fold KK preflop?

I ended up folding, but was dismayed to see blackmagic have tens and Td QQ.

I'm really trying not to be results oriented, but I think this is the right fold. Every other time this situation arises the guy has AA.

Every other time??? Are you kidding me? This is not a stupidly rare situation, it surprises me not at all. For this fold to be correct you'd have to be sure that TD had aces some big fat % of the time, and you haven't given one good reason why his range is that tight. And as you can see, people minraise with less than the nuts.

Clearly people don't play nearly tight-predictable enough for you to be making folds like this in spots like this. Even if AA is their most likely hand, that might make it a 25% plurality, not a 90% majority like you seem to be treating it.

It should make you want to cry that you threw away $3000 because you saw monsters under the covers.

Noah,

I'm not sure if you were at a lot of tables or what but the short stacker here was incredibly terrible and his range was very wide. I was definitely trying to isolate my hand with him.

Thanks for folding [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
