Default Wtf? maybe this is why i dont win tournaments (folding AA PF level 1 wtf)

On another site they were discussing how in a double stack tournament, first level, guy open pushes. Folded to you, who has AA.

Everyone was saying "you fold, cant win a tournament in the first level, but you can lose it." Now im sitting here laughing my ass off at that advice, yet everyone is against me yet again and saying folding is obv the best play here.

I FEEL LIKE IM GOING CRAZY AGAIN.

WTFFFFFFFFFF

Tell me you dont all fold that?

The only time I'd do it would be in a satellite bubble when the "chance" of getting the prize outweighs the equity in the hand. In this case, first hand your chance of winning/cashing etc. is pretty low, you gotta at least give yourself a chance to build a big stack.

I'm no tourney player but there is no way I fold. It seems terrible to me.

Looks like a good time to double up to me. Sure, even 27o could outdraw you, but if you're scared to play AA HU (except perhaps a sat bubble against a larger stack when someone else will be blinded out real soon) then it's time to quit poker and take up knitting.

^^^BAHAHAHAHA. Yea there is no way in hell you fold that hand. Most likely they are going to be drawing to 2 outs if they have a pocket pair, and unless you are me you should win the hand.
