Well, I'm not sure what you are asking? Is it standard to fold ppQ/PPT when you know an opponent is holding ppA? Yes, if the situation dictates. Meaning, suppose you have ppQ and make a standard 3-4BB raise, and the ppA comes screaming over the top allin, well, I think a fold is in order. The logic here is that with a smaller pp preflop, you will need to be getting 5-1 on the money to hit your 21% set by showdown. But to get to showdown, you are most likely to be facing more bets on the flop, turn and river, so that kinda sorta dilutes that preflop logic. Of course the situation becomes more interesting when there are other opponents in the pot as well, but perhaps that is for another post...
Nice picture. It's hard to fold that. I can't actually. But I play low limits. And I totally agree with shokaku. And you should know that you still have a chance to win against AA.
