Default Players who cannot fold A-K preflop deep in the WSOP ME?

shocks me. it's really not that hard. it's just a drawing hand lol ffs.

Dag Martin Mikkelsen Eliminated in 42nd Place ($237,865)

Preflop, Dag Martin Mikkelsen raises to 150,000 in the cutoff and David Tran reraises to 500,000 on the button. Mikkelsen three-bets all in for 2,600,000 with A-K and Tran calls with A-A. Mikkelsen is out and Tran is up to 8,400,000.

bb was 50k. could have been a re-steal... but come on.... he prob has a pair and you're fliping or a big underdog.... maybe just call pre and at least see a flop? no - raises all in. i don't get it... he had over 60 x bb and was in the top 10 in chips.

seen countless other HH's where people play it like it's aces. if you have a low stack then fine....

rainkhan told me tran was reraising preflop lightly, as such its an obvious shove. to assume otherwise given that information makes one a really weak player.

of all the examples of people horribly butchering AK preflop in this tournament, you picked an absolutely standard play.

maybe call and see a flop?

or re-raise 1million to make it known that you're serious?

no, and 1 million more is effectively a shove, so just shove

This is where you need to just look him in the eye and tell him you're serious.

It's pretty rarely correct to fold AK preflop deep in anything.
