Well, do as Doyle Brunson. Just call with the AA hand. AA wins small pots or looses bit pots. However, it's hard not to call. No matter what other players are dealt, you are a favorite to win preflop, so I would always call, even if someone says all-in.

Posted by intentcity4: i thought the bloke who folded the Ks was lame, if you get done with pkt Ks then it wasnt meant to be.
The problem is, that Greek may play a bit loose preflop, but if he raises like in that hand he has a monster. And as the player had kings himself, he had to put him on aces.
lol folding AA preflop is like walking over water... you just can't do it EXCEPT, except and except you're in a satellite game where 31 players left and you're sitting in 28th, dealt AA but 4 guys pushed all in before you...
Agree with you Calm It's really hard to fold AA preflop, any case. I couldn't fold it either in a situation like you described before: with AA I want to win and to get off all opponents

I've seen a very similar hand to this. In fact it was the same one. I seen it a while ago.
Calmplay I've been in a similar situation to what you described but it was kk. Down to the bubble and three people raise me all in. Have to fold and it kills me. Turns out I'd have won the hand but it was smart to fold. I think I made about twelve dollars. It was a 1 dollar rebuy and I'd only bought in once but had an really unlucky streak just before the payouts.
