It all depends on the stack of players who play all-in, if I have the most stack, then call, if the least, then fold.

Preflop would load a lot, a super raise, and if I was in final position and they raise before me I will go All In

I’d likely call the all ins as well. It’s not a comfortable spot though.

Well, I definitely wouldn't do what David Fishman did, folding AA preflop impossible.

Hello. That's a good question. Play slow, get to the flop cheap and then decide.

I would give ALL in but not in the pre-flop, depending on the circumstances of the variance in the post-flop I would call any bet, even an ALL In.

I get your idea what you want to see from people who answer to this thread, but in real life this will not happen because at a wsop final table players will not go all-in pre with the same stacks. It may can be valid some MTTs but especially higher levels they don't risk their whole game and a chance to get to the glory by playing bingo when they are not supposed to making flips.
However if it would do happen with me (holy moly!) , I would call, cause there's a great chance that players even blocking each others cards, and everyone is exhausted so great time to end this thing with the best pre-combination. And if I will be busted, even 4th place earn a lifechanging one. :)

At the final table it would be a very aggressive play, starting with a raise to 3 blinds and averages and depending on the flop, if there are no draws, I would make a very high raise or all in depending on the stacks in play and players :)

If the goal is to win the tournament, just pay, if you think about the ICM fold and run behind in the heads up.

I am going all in, and lucky to have the chance against such exalted company.

sincerely my desire is to go there, and surely I will because I can not control that yet, but the books, the statistics and everything tells me that I should anchor, those are the only moments where they **** AA

I'm definitely going to hit strongly pre-flop and according to the variance, I go all in.

Raise all in pre flop if low chip stack. Otherwise if chip leader just a standard raise.

:cool: I play hard, I would bet everything before the flop so I win only the obligatory ones, so I don't win much, those hands have to be played like this, I don't know what others think.

Depends on chip stack, but mostly all in. Of course you could raise if you want to protect your range.

Salute for this very nice situation you have sketched.
Normally you would like to play your Aces at any cost because this is the best hand youll get.
But with the pay jumps this high you probably have around 30% to win the hand.
All other players will be out of the tournament and one big win. Personally I think the value of your pricemoney jump is good enough to maybe fold. Difficult..

exactly.. you have to read your oponents..
if I'm playing against an agressive player, maybe I play aces slow..but If I'm short I go all in

You are at the final table WSOP, 4 players left including you. The 4 players have equal amounts of chips.
You are in the big blind , player 1 goes allin, player on the button goes allin and the player on small blind goes allin also.
You look : you have AA , What do you do?

You defenetly should've create a poll
You defenetly should... :damnmate:
