72off for sure as it would be easy to fold

Yes, Streets win, but sets are also often dropped.

Of course 99s
I think my opponent would be shocked, it would just be a nervous breakdown :)
...... and probably not only he would have a nervous breakdown :)

None, if I know he has AA, I'll fold, of course.🤪😁

I would love for my hand to be 99 against his AA and for him to flop a 9 so I just check and let him always bet.

Among those options, I think I'll go with JTs
Its hard, but you have the possibility of hitting something strong enough to beat AA. The options you have are much less limited than with, for example, KK.

KK, happened once, I won the flip in a 109 buy-in tournament, hard to fold tough.

Experience shows me that a pair formed pre-flop is always a strong hand.
If I knew that my rival had AA preflop I would fold even if I only had 1/2 BB left to continue.
But being forced to go, I preferred to go with another partner.

Probably some hands with draws, like 56s, 67s, 89s, or 9Ts.

JTs would have the biggest chances.

But I would choose 99s and before the dealer dealt the community cards, I would call the tournament organization and the hand would be canceled for having two identical cards in the deck.

JT, you have a chance to beat AA and it happens often, at least in my case when I have AA:confused:

JTs, I would hope to win with a flush or a sequel, I think it would be the best to beat head-on.

Hi:)
Although the situation is not assured, I would choose a pair or something like JTs, they might have more chance of beating the Ace pair.
