Re: Players who cannot fold A-K preflop deep in the WSOP ME?
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] I agree, I layed down AK last week at the final table at Binions, and I even showed it (I wanted to give an image of being very tight as well), and you should of heard the gasps. [/ QUOTE ] I agree that it is totally situation dependent, but think OP's hand was very standard. I laid down AKo to a raise at a live final table yesterday. Everyone was fairly short stacked and playing the very live tight style. Most of the table was only playing phil style poker with 77+,AQ+. With no antes UTG open pushed all-in for ~7 BB (this was around the typical stack size). I had about 15-20 BB and AKo in UTG+1. I was abusing the table with raises and liked my stack size and didn't like getting involved for a significant number of chips with the whole rest of the table left to act. My fold was probably too weak tight, but that's my style. Of course 3 hands latter I pushed with 74s in the SB and got the BB to fold with only 2 BB left behind! I pushed in the CO and LP and got no callers. So my lay down was partially under the knowledge that I'd have later better opportunities as long as I kept my stack size what it was. In a tournament with better people left I'd have been forced to repop with my AKo hand. [/ QUOTE ] YOU FOLDED AK FOR 7 MOTHER [censored] BB'S OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

I knew if I played it would be for all my chips, so I layed it down. Good thing, because the UTG shocked that I layed it down (and showed it), turned over AA. [/ QUOTE ] lol donkaments
