Why not ? I think to have best starting hand it always better than not to to have a f*** ( Max Catalano docet ). All of us had to face bad beats but it's the essence of this game

ofcourse that pressure is hard when you are at that kind of final table and ofocurse you will think why he put all in,but on what you would call or go all in if you fold AA!on something finally you must pay,or blinds will eat you,so yeah I would pay on AA

Call, ofc. AA are strongest pocket cards, so its nothing to thinking about. Your opponent could not have better cards, maybe he has AA too, so he could not be in advantage before the board cards are dealt.

Posted by OlujniMornar: I've lost so many times with pocket aces (and so many allins) so, when i get them, i don't feel so excited... it's just a pair
It is strange how different we are each one from the other....when I play I'm always praying to be dealt rockets
LOL yeh !
And, FWIW - i very rarely lose AA. Like - hardly ever. Even though i play poker a lot (read: way to much) I STILL get excited when I see AA. And still cry a little when I get AA on bb and it folds to me.

AA for a hand, why not? most of the i would just call but it depends on the table and the players. and like what jessthehuman says, you will have to pray hard so that everyone bets and not the other way around.

ty for ur replies ev1 for me its instant call cos of the reasons many of u mentioned. but their poll results had me wondering if i was missing a point, so thot why not get a opinion frm other people.

against one player, and specially the small blind, which would be the player with the largest range on the table, i will call his shove, even for 100 bb with AA KK, and QQ also, without any fear of loss.
the only way i had to throw aces preflop in a non satelite structure will be if im going allin facing more than 2 players, in that spot maybe trow aces away because the equity of Aces vs two or more villians will be around 30-40% of win, depending on the other player holecards,
so, answering to the OP, yes, i will instacalling with my rockets, and hope them resist to the end ofthe hand
