I wasn't involved in this hand but just wondering how people play it, can you fold kings when an ace flops in L1? Or do you go broke here? Anyone recommend pushing preflop?

Never fold this preflop. RR to 400. Call any push.

i'm sure he meant, "can you fold this after the ace hits on the flop"

This is really the most standard laydown there is. Raise to 400 preflop, IMO, and c/f this flop. I'd also suggest you move down to the 10s if this is a difficult laydown for you (Ideally you'd play 5$ SNGs but the rake is huge on PPoker).

Read the post, I wasnt in the hand. My standard line is to fold on the flop bet but at the 22s I see so much [censored] that I beat I was wondering if it is profitable to push here. Just getting others opinions. Also, 22s players = 11s players = 6s players, there are just a few more pushbotters at the 22s than at the 11s or 6s.

If you see so much [censored] that you beat, why not c-bet and see how he reacts?

As played (checked and looking at a bet of 780), easy fold.

If I check-folded every time an over came to my PP I would be missing out on money... [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] This hand however, was so terribly misplayed from every angle that I see no point in commenting, especially since the OP didn't play it.
