all in pocket aces preflop ?

[TomKat1958]

I'd prefer to see the flop.. Going all in with pocket anything gets you beat a high percentage of time... The more players that stay in on a hand like that.. increase your chances of losing... I hate to lose everything in a tourney... don't you?

Do not slow play, do not slow play, o yeah and DO NOT SLOW PLAY!

agreed!

I think the main reason people get beat up with aces is that they don't know when the fold them. Pocket aces are obviously the best preflop, but most beginners never feel like they can fold aces post flop when they are clearly beat

[sartaj316]

depends if its heads up obviously all in but if you see others pushing in I would suggest fold because less likely your hand is gonna be best

i prefer slow play but depend from situation

It matters what your image is and who is behind you waiting to act

This is the reason I was knocked out.......I have had the Worst 4 Bad Beats EVER!!!!!! I have tried this freeroll 4 separate times. The field is usually under 200 players. Each time I have been knocked out between 40 and 50th standings with the worst unforeseeable bad beats! Last night was the icing on the cake. I had AA and I did not do an aggressive bet. I had 6K and others were approx 10K and above. One stayed and the flop was AKK he checked and I bet pot. The turn was K I bet pot again he called. I was stupid to go all in. He called and the last two K9. winning with 4 of a kind K's over my boat. This is how these freerolls have gone for me each an unbelievable bad beat. There I said it...so frustrated I only have one more ticket left to use and I do not want to even try...Thanksfor the ears all

Always raise. Don't slowplay unless there is a wildman behind you who you are sure will raise so you can reraise.

By raising you should eliminate most of the hands that always surprise you on a mixed card flop. Those calling a raise usually have an ace, face cards or pocket pairs (we are assuming you are not in a freeroll with donks who don't know better). A lot of high cards on the flop signals caution. When low cards hit and someone bets agressively, reraises your raise, consider you may be up against trips.

Early in freerolls and low buyin tournaments a lot of players don't give others credit for big hands so an all-in there will probably get a few callers. Many callers lowers you odds of winning but you are still ahead going into the flop.

Yes MIsurfer... It's obvious that what I said is true.... If you're in a tourney... avoid going all in yourself or calling it... remember the winner is the last man standing in a tourney... Go all in a few times and you're gonna wind up a loser.... Don't go all in unless post flop you know you've got the winning hand... even then, it's best to place value bets and milk the table...
