We know ovely that AA is the best pair, when pairs are being talked about, now my concern is this: should always be called before a bet all in before the Flop?

It is the strongest preflop hand so I would say it should always be an insta call. Worst case scenario you have another AA or a suited draw but you are a heavy favorite preflop.

the restlessness is because in the majority not to say that in all the tournaments that I have been playing lately, after having reached the top 100 of +5000 players, boom touches me that AA and as a strange thing of the devil in that hand there is always someone that comes all in, ovbiamente with AA I call and SURPRISE AA vs 66 I link full hause 66688 and pa out in another AA vs JQ and SURPRISE I link ladder 10 to AS AA vs 99 and I trigan trio of 9 and so were more than five tournaments in a week after coming very well AA leaves me out of the tournament.

That is why I cast this question.

DUH

If someone shoves pre flop and you are holding AA and you don't shove you are not a poker player and should not play the game. Poker is not about one hand during one session but a cumulative amount of hands adding up to profitable play. AA in the long run is always going to be profitable if you steadily play the same stakes. If you are worried about getting busted at mtt or stacked in a nl cash game (its going to happen they will get cracked) then poker is not for you. Folding AA pre flop is never an option.

The way that people play any two cards nowadays I think that all in preflop is the only way to play pocket Aces.. Slow playing them never seems to work it looks like they get cracked more often than they hold up..

It's the best hand preflop however depending on your position and how many all ins are already in it turns into a coin toss on who hits the set. I always fold AA if I feel 3 or more have a poker pair and going to play the all in who gets lucky game.

Can loose

I've seen lots of hands lost with AA, a flush, a straight, the of a kind the hand that in my statistics gets the most avarage of winning is AK, many people will discuss about it, even though I usally go all in with AA only if I have more money than my opponent, so the disapointment is less if i loose

I have bad experiences with AA. I often lose a triple or two pair.

Yes I would call all in before flop with AA always. Even with KK probably almost always. :)

60 percent of hands with pocket AA I was lost. therefore I treat them with caution

pocket aces are just one pair, so I often had to throw them away if the table of one opponent's ball supported the game after the flop, and if the set did not come, it's often a defeat

Considering AA is a strongest pair if you fold it to all-in preflop you fold any pair to all-in preflop. Your opponents may learn (sooner or later) that you always fold to their all-in (even with AA) preflop - then they'll attack you with all-in relentlessly. So you have to play AA.

AA is very easy to play at a 6-max cash table. There is no ambiguity - you get as much money into the middle pre-flop as the other 5 players will allow.

It's completely different at a full-ring table of a tournament. There are a lot more variables. Yes, there are times when the correct move would be to fold AA pre-flop. However, I can't imagine a time when it is correct to limp or min-bet with them. You either play them aggressively (if the situation makes that a favorable option) or you don't play them at all.

The goal is to isolate and crush, NOT to get into a post-flop game of wits. Limping AA pre-flop with 3 or 4 callers is sheer lunacy.

Preflop with AA and heads up is certainly a call. No reason to fold. However, there are certainly times I would fold AA preflop if there are enough other players in the hand. The more all ins before me, decreases my chance to win and therefore my willingness to call depending on stage of the tourney, my opponents and stacks.

On preflop, the AA card is a force, and I do not fold AA but play them
aggressively to win more players, and there are losses on AA, but most of all they pass when you play aggressively, and do not wait until you are interrupted by cards 72 and other small, for me AA a good card to raise chips or money!

I had several times that with a pair of aces on my hands, I made a big bet and lost. this is a strong hand, but it is not worth much hope for it.

AA's

i still fold sometimes when more then 2 guys at table and the deck is bad
like when they need just 1 card to make flush or straight
my favorite is 9/9 dunno why but i always win with it

AA is gonna lose sometimes, it is just a pair after all. Play them aggressively pre flop and try to isolate.

What hand do You want to play if not aces??? Play them very aggressive to make sure that You do not end up in a multi-way pot, because if You allow several opponents to see a flop then You can have very hard decissions to make with Aces...

Yes... they will be cracked...! That's Poker. In the long run getting all your chips in with AA preflop will be profitable!
