blazman 0 Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 If Daniel reads this forum, I have a question.. Lets say there was a $3,000,000 buyin tournament, mostly mediocre players. (don't ask where they got the money to play, they just did)WSOP ME structure. First hand you get AA, you are on the button. Someone raises to 200, you raise to 1000, and they go all-in. Do you call?

ThanksErik BlazynskiI like to think that for some spiritual reason you're allowed only 1 post per calendar year, and that somehow you spent 8 months crafting this careful question. Seriously, though, this has been covered a billion times before and does not need to be rehashed. Link to post Share on other sites

Seriously, though, this has been covered a billion times before and does not need to be rehashed.Really? Usually the question is something like if you knew your opponent had KQ and you had AK would you call an all-in?I honestly don't remember all-in vs. AA thread 'cause this has got to be the crackhead question of the month.

This one is vastly different because the buy in is $3mil instead of $10K. Link to post Share on other sites

But sometimes it's the AA question. Just wait till WSOP time when these questions get asked twice a week. Link to post Share on other sites
blazman 0 Posted February 9, 2007 Author Share Posted February 9, 2007 I'm real sorry. I didn't mean to offend anyone with my question. I had a debate with someone on this topic and was looking for a pro's answer. Again, my intent was not to offend anyone. Link to post Share on other sites

Don't sweat it big fella.Here is the answer you're looking for. Go all in. You always go all in or call off with AA preflop in any tourney for any amount. The only possible reason not to is if it is a satellite and you are on the bubble with a ton of chips and are against the chipleader while everyone else is on life support.You're welcome.

magnus72 0 Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 I think this was asked to Doyle once before (obviously not for a 3 million dollar tourney) and he said the day he folds pocket aces preflop is the day he quits playing poker. Link to post Share on other sites

I had a debate with someone on this topic and was looking for a pro's answer. Again, my intent was not to offend anyone.you didnt offend anyone.. I personally think you have to fold here... i mean.. if he has AK you are basically a coin flip because he could easily flop a straight... and if he doesnt flop the straight he could easily get it by the river.. its statistically proven that a King will hit the flop 33 percent of the time.. so I mean.. If you are only a small favorite over AK and he has the extra King outs.. I think that you dont want to put yourself in as a slight favorite this early in the tourney... I would fold and I definately think daniel would fold.. fearing he is up against AK. Link to post Share on other sites
