In Response to Re: COULD U FOLD : tikay?? do you call this on the bubble in a satalite tourney to a tourney you cant afford to buy directly into?? i personally would fold on the bubble in a sat... but this would be the only situation i would fold in.. Posted by daz231023
Unlikely, but it depends on the relative Stack Sizes & blinds.
I used to play a lot of Live Super Sats, & it was not uncommon, if the stack sizes & blinds were "just so", to Pass AA pre-flop.
"It depends" is the answer, I guess. It's deffo not 100% "no, never".
In Response to Re: COULD U FOLD : assuming you were average to big stack... i would call if i were less than average stack and risked being blinded out Posted by daz231023
If I were average to big, in the specific scenario you describe, I fold in a heartbeat.

NEVER worry about what the Analysts or Presenters might say!
1) We (the Analysts & Presenters, even Rich Orford) can see everyone's hole cards - that makes it different.
2) We never mock players "on screen", it's just not something we do.
There is always a reason why anyone does anything. It's the Analysts role to work that out, & discuss it, but nerver, never ever, berate the play.

Well the bubble is a different beast anyway, I have folded AA, KK before now after seeing MereNovice refuse to put them down once and guess who didn't qualify!

hi kev m8 ,when i floped the nut str8 ,i felt i was 28 million miles ahead and was thinking ,how am i gonna get paid ......then 2 players shove all in ,and im thinking this an absolute dream of a hand...... most players that have replied to this thread said ,they would instant call, snap call ,wud call in 0.0001 seconds ,which normally i would have done ,but i was a little curious 2 now why 2 players wud shove allin on a 5 high board,,,,,,,,,,even tho im holding the nuts......has some1 got a3 ,{un raised pot}possibly? but there was a flush draw there...has some1 hit a set ,im gonna have 2 avoid the board pairing ,i dont like that flush draw ...i really did not like that flush draw ,in this particular hand ,my [gut feeling} was, he was gonna hit it ,even tho im holding the nuts ,,,,,,,,,,,,so ive now gone from feeling 28 million miles ahead ,{ive got the nuts}to being in a race ,,,,,,now i dont feel that my hand is as far ahead as i first thought,,,,,,,, the bottom line was ,i dont like that flush draw ,my gut feelin says hes gonna hit it {even tho im holding the nuts } i seriously thought of folding ,but reluctantly made the call ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,he hit his flush on the turn ,which proved my gut feeling 2 b correct ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,i put this thread on here 2 show that ,1 minute im thinking how do i get paid im miles ahead ,to actually thinkin of folding the nuts ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,i can play poker m8 lol bblukky
