AA vs KK vs QQ

[Tomatoes]

I thought this hand played out rather strangely and would be interested in any comments on it.

3 questions about this hand:
Did QQ butcher this hand by bloating the pot preflop?
Did KK make a huge laydown or a huge blunder? (the guy only said he folded kings so we don't know for sure, but let's assume he is telling the truth)
Did AA make a mistake by not raising at the first opportunity?

None of the players in this hand played it well.

Forgot to add that UTG player had the KK hand.

IMO - No way was KK folded there.

QQ was short and did what he should have done.

Given QQ was short , AA probably did the right thing by just calling and going to the flop with only one other live player. Questionable as to the right option on the flop/ check raise or bet - I think bet is right given drawy nature of board.

utg played it horribly, he should have shoved pre, given that he didn't he should call flop

[Nielsio]

ban op


utg didn't have KK and you're posting this just for funsies.

UTG is thinking on the -1th level.
