Guy intentionally folds Pocket Aces preflop on live TV

[gametime74]

what a nit, i would of atleast seen a flop, if you flop a set you get more money.

I don't think you can give the guy credit for being good and whatnot cause he folded Aces. Someone said it takes a great player to be able to fold Aces, this was not the case at all. He was just some dude who didn't want to chance losing money and taking down the profit plus the poker package that was put together. I think it is actually quite a sad play, if i were in the same boat, i woulda raised preflop, then thrown out another bet on the river, now considering circumstances, I would have folded after getting played back at with 2 6's out there, but I would at least have played poker, it is what you are there for.

i watched this shit hero fold and wihtout hesitation

you donk, this was no hero fold, if you watched the whole show when he hit a massive pot he told everyone he was going to fold every hand till the show was over, he decided to tell everyone he folded A-A and the rest did not believe him, there was side bet action after the show if he really had A-A

and that why he has a youtube vid for this fold, regardless the guy save money on that play, you say its sad, i say its luck and a good conservative play..

It was a smart disciplined fold ... he booked a win for life changing money.

It was smart for the discipline, not the results.

When I watched this clip I was thinking WTF who does that... Realized it was pot limit preflop, so Laak was calling with 66 regardless.
