I forgot to tell you about AA. That i never folded on pre-flop, my i remember once, exactly in the same situation of the KK story i told before, and that i would have done better if i had folded because i lost the chance of getting to prizes because of playing it. But i think it isnt reasonable to fold a 60% chance of winning preflop hand, it is just not reasonable, even if it is because of getting to the money, because winning that hand could mean reach higer money prizes.

Everyone has their own approach to the value of AA especially. There are times when you will fold, like when all in and your neck is on the line, but dont worry about being close to the bubble, unless all prixes are the same, cos to come one after the bubble usually isnt a great deal more than you paid to get in relatively, and you really want to hit the final table so some risks have to be taken. AA isnt invincible as we know (or should know!)
