Throwing away AA

[Djmickre]

Yes. After the flop definitely possible to fold when so many players shove.

 

[oldolm]

i remember i folded AA post flop 1 time when flop was AKQ hearts and i got set AAA and 3 opponents alin, it was good fold i would looose

 

[Lucky Alalk]

I personally always fold in this situation

 

[Ero2407]

if after the flop three players go to allin this is an occasion to ponder, especially if a flush or a straight is possible

 

[edcwy]

Yes, The goal is to win pots. In multi-way pots with players in and more to come, you got fold equity.

AA is only the best hand preflop. It takes discipline but that's a big part of getting better.

 

[Ero2407]

It's very difficult to force myself to do this, but a couple times I did , and this has allowed me to reach the final

Hello! Most often, AA wins most of the hands. practice shows that victory takes place more often. It's profitable. My opinion.
there were many cases when the lowest cards won. Of course, circumstances are still important.

AA wins most hands? YES with 2 players, preFlop (>80% chance to win charts show)

But, when post flop 3 players go all-in, the 80% has dropped to well below 50% (i would be surprised if it is better than 20% in this case, as it is 1 pair (the AA) versus 2pairs, sets, straight and flush draws, straights, flushes or worse, depending the flop).
Fold is the only sensible thing to do.

With the same players next time: need to raise more preflop, to limit the number of opponents.
With decent level players, all-in will only give you the blinds, with poor player, like early in many freerolls, all-in is the only way to avoid everyone calling.
Just saw today in a william hill 25$ freeroll: 6 people going all-in preflop; that's called bingo, not poker.

Sometimes i must throw aa but stil fo me is dificiult

Think this depends on several things, the buyin, the villans, the icm, the board texture, etc.

In a freeroll I think most of the time I am going with the Aces.

 

[The_Times]

you walk away to0 easy. Sometimes it is true, imo, that aces must be folded. But in that particular situation it would be a tough disicion.

Not prefolp, never in my opinion. If you're folding aces preflop, you must be waiting for a better hand.. like pocket aces suited.

 

[The_Times]

Of course not preflop. There only few flops where aces could be folded. But very few I think)
When you have pocket aces there is only one player who wants to put all his chips in the pot, it's you)

 

[Polytarp]

Toss 'em if you are certain of getting in the money and can still hang in for at least 2-3 blinds. This is also predicated on knowing who you're dealing with -their expected hand ranges and if they were bluffers. It's a lottery made to produce bad beats usually.

 

[finaltable1]

I can easy fold AA pre-flop during a tournament. It all depends on my stack, position, time left till FT and who's pushing.

 

[Anjo]

It's a wonderful pre-flop, but if after the flop 3 players come in with all in and the flop is suggestive, I'll fold yes.

 

[steve22055]

They are tuff to toss but depending on the flop (strght draw, flush draw, pair) and three people shoving their chips, I would most probably fold but would also take into consideration the other three players habits if known.

 

[timberwolf94]

I don't think I could fold AA. Maybe I could after the river but most of the time I get all in preflop or before the turn

 

[binky]

Yes I can. I have lost many times with pocket aces.

 

[Roger1960]

I have done it a couple of times. Right at the bubble, more than two big stacks all in. Sickening, good fold though.

 

[MKaizer07]

Can you walk away from AA after the flop, when there are 3 other players ahead of you shoving all-in when the flop is drawn?

It is very easy to walk away from pocket aces , especially if there are 3 other all in players. You are most likely to be behind by someone who hit two pair or a set on the flop.

 

[hugh blair]

You need to get all in preflop to avoid this nightmare scenario you do not want 3 opponents seeing flops against you as is dangerous

 

[blueskies]

AA in a fourway hand is not in good shape unless you happen to flop a set. If you flop a set and everyone shoves then it's all in.

Otherwise you gotta strongly consider folding unless you have huge pot equity or you know they all will shove with any top pair.

 

[Dream Slayer]

Can I assume the Flop was not A 9 9 or A 9 A ?Cause then I probably would not fold

 

[BigGrayWolf]

Once I wanted to drop even a set of aces on the river when the opponent showed straight but he had only two pairs. But theoretically I do not exclude that I'll throw a couple of aces.
