1st hand wsop. Some donk goes all in, u got AA. Do u call ???

Think of how many hands you could play after you fold! Definite fold. You can find a much better spot to put your chips in. Only fish put their tournament life on the line that early...above all else, survival is paramount - it's a tournament.

Fold, your TOURNAMENT LIFE is at stake, wait until you have someone drawing dead before you go all in.

QFT you saw what happened to IWEARGOOGLES when that fish couldnt fold AA

I thought we were talking heads up here...

if there are two people already in the pot all in... that DOES make a difference, but zen is right i don't think i'm gonna fold... maybe thats the gambler in me [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I think it pretty much comes down to whether you want to triple up as a favorite or pick a better spot. I'm calling here expecting KK, QQ, or AK.

Aah ... now I see what you mean: a 60% chance to quadruple is really much better than an 80% chance to just double up. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

It's not just retarded, it's borderline lead paint chip buffet eaten by high voltage power lines next to a leaking nuclear reactor retarded.

There was a thread in the past in which somebody advocated folding AA preflop in situations where every player before you was all-in with a deep stack.

We all lol'd

[Jon_AK]

These situations are what good bankroll management is for; insta call.

Even considering calling with AA when everyone else has gone in is awful -- it's absolutely horrific & you're almost certain to bust out. It's even -cEV:

[Tackleberry]

Serious about that?! If so, this thread gets even worse ...

What should that demonstrate? How great is the probability that two players have AA????

Substitute the second AA against QQ and you´re a 20% favourite to 10x your stack.
