AA vs KK
AA vs KK preflop.
The endless discussion hand. I got all in pre with it last night, only to lose to a river K.
Which happens, but it's back to the question......when is KK no good preflop.
Assuming you are not up against a total donkey.
In this hand the villian limped with his KK. I was in the SB and bet about double the pot. $400 buy in game he had about $300, I was over $400. So I made it about 20.
He then jumped it to 60ish.
The limp/raise.......9 out of 10 means the guy has a monster right....and almost every decent player realizes this.
So knowing that, and him knowing that I know that.......I bump it up 100 more. He pushed all in. I called, river K, end of story.
I told the guy nice read, I might have had KJoff, pushing in a 3rd bet preflop (sarcasticly)
Then another player asked if I've ever folded it preflop. I have.....only a few times. I usually don't put in a 4th raise preflop with it. I got bumped today, saw a flop. AQ flop.....about the only hands someone will reraise with (AK, AA, QQ) are covered so I bailed. I was 90% sure the guy had AA, 10% on QQ, AK.......
When is KK no good?
For guys who never fold it........do you feel good putting it all in, in the situation I described and lost?
For instance.....what would you put me on?
You limp/raise....telling me you have a monster.......I then reraise you.
What do you think I have?
Or do you just call because it's KK and you have to call?
Don't get me wrong I don't fold KK regularly......but when you reraise someone....and they push in another big bet..........when I play it I don't have a great feeling.
Again this is taking out playing total donks. The guy in this situation has seen me play.
Regardless of what skill level he thinks I am......he knows I'm not a total donk.
So what hand do you put me on in this situation?
Do you still play your KK all in for 320ish?
