Fold AKs or AA preflop

[bronko19999]

Of course, I left on aa yesterday

 

[Baldy86]

i would fold AK preflop when i face strong aggression / rereraises when it is a tight table or a tight player

because in many cases when they rereraise or push all in even then often they have minimum QQ . with QQ you are a slight dog at 55 45 or so "only" but still i wouldnt want to push with AK against QQ unless i dont have that much of a stack

Depends on the position. I would fold from a bad one otherwise go all-in.

Ak i folded like 5 times in lifetime, AA never and would not.

AK is a slight underdog against a pair except kings when it is a big underdog, but you'll be surprised and horrified how often that ace flops. Even worse if it comes on the river.

In a satellite if you can fold AA or AK.

Hi Fernando

I would like to think I'll play AA every time, but in a situation like yours, I would probably do as you did. No hand is a guaranteed win and being in 2nd place and the tournament is on the bubble, it becomes an easier laydown because you don't gain anything from taking down the pot. If 1st gets the same as 8th no need to take any risks.
