I have never folded KK pre and don’t plan on it, literally the only thing I can think of is a money bubble where cashing is suuuper important to your roll. Even then I’d say shove but regardless I just don’t believe it’s ever a hand to fold pre. Sometimes you run in to AA, sometimes another hand gets there, that’s the game.

The chance to find an AA against your KK is approximately 0.2%. So even in FT you can not let go of that hand.

you have nothing to comment on playing preflop all, just luck, there's no strategy, you just have to wait to put your cards :) GL

I don't think I could ever get myself to fold KK or AA preflop. Definitely not AA anyway...KK I would only drop if I was in a long tournament close to bubble boy and 3+ people were already all-in. Chances are one of them has an ace and an ace will show on the board.

In preflop it is the better combination and no one never fold that cards, but you must raise or go all, depend on situation.

I disagree. Preflop regardless of the situation you should never drop KK or AA.
In the bubble the players usually loose, to steal the blinds and to press. So it's just another reason not to let go of a hand like that.

I'm not really understanding your statement or question.
are you saying people are folding these hands pre ?? Due to being scared of badbeats or jaming it preflop ??

nope, never drop it.. i imagine you ask the question of how often you have had kk and lose vs AA.. never drop that preflop, but postflop is a little common the drop with too much action with A in the flop .. dont feel bad about losing against AA is part of the game.

The question itself is why some people drop these hands all in pre.
In an all in between the entire table you can not drop those hands. 99.8% You'll be up front and pull that pot.

I think if you are thinking of folding AA prepared flop you are more worried about losing chips rather than building your stack. I'm still learning but from what I've read you don't win tournaments without putting your stack on the line now and again.

It depends a lot, there are several factors that should be analyzed before playing KK. We must be cautious and a lot of patience to win a tournament. To be able to win tournament in a few moments we should fold AA, believe me!

It all depends on the cost of the tournament, if the freeroll is always a call, but the more expensive the less situations will be in which there will be more than three people all in, basically 2 people.

I usually never fold KK preflop, I 3 bet and wait the flop. Once in the flop I wait again if theres an ace I 3 bet again and if someone call or raise, that is the first alarm to say goodbye to a great hand haha :D

Exactly, the ideal is Cbet and play analyzing all the possibilities. Primarily the Range of the villain

All you can do is try to maximize how much you win, if you get sucked out on, well thats just poker. How you maximize the amount you win is by understanding the villans.

The overwhelming majority do not miss AA and KK.
But I see many people who still find it profitable to drop into a bubble and FT.
I believe that the only solution in this case is only the interest of these people in studying and reviewing their concepts.
