WSOP First Hand Aces what do you do?

Imagine you are on the big blind in the first hand of the WSOP and you have aces. There are 2 limpers then the button goes all in.
What do you do?
They obviously can't have a better hand but aces often don't hold up.
Call or fold?

You would have to do a search, or one of our competent members would have to post a link here, but we have a thread discussing this. As I recall the scenario, everyone at the table goes allin & you are holding Pocket A's. What is your play? Interesting thread.

Well i would obv call, i mean who wouldnt.
But, if like kenzie said evryone went allin, then i would fold. I would even fold aces if 3 people were allin.

If you don't call then I don't know what to tell you, you have the best hand possible right now and you just throw it away?

You fold. So that right on the money bubble of Day 2 when you have 30,000 in chips and push all in with AA and get called by Jamie Gold with 32s and he wins, you can say you finished out of the money, just like you would have during the 1st hand of the tourney.
