So here it is. My biggest AA fold post flop. Not the hardest fold by any means. But it was on the biggest stage of the game. The game we all dream about being in. Main Event. Wsop. 2011. I get AA on Day 1 after being card dead for 2 hours and blinding down to around 22k. I open in mid position for around 4x and it goes four way to the flop. One caller behind and both blinds come in. This was the only time I got AA all tourney in 3 days and 32 hours of gameplay. Flop comes K J Q. SB leads out, BB raises. Its on me. I wanna jam so badly. Good size pot. Im holding the best starting hand in the game. Even if im screwed i have 4 10s to draw to the stone nuts. I timebank. And finally toss it in. SB comes over the top of BBs raise and I know right there I made a great fold. BB folds and I burst out damn I had AA. BB goes believe it or not you were in third place that hand. Went on to grind my ass off. All in once on day 2, all in 10 times on day 3 ahead everytime except the last one. AK into AA to bust. On the Bubble. Hell of a ride though. Got to live a dream that most people will never get to do at 21 years old.
