AA first hand in a freeroll

[buddha30]

hmm your odds with the aa is so much greater than just a simple call with rags
i would push with them first hand all in especially a freeroll.
i mean what do you have to loose its a freeroll right. the worst that can happen is that you get knocke dout by a bad beat but it can happen anytime.
my thought is to push.

TALK ALL YOU WANT, YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO CONVINCE ME THAT SOMEONE HAS FOLDED AA , PRE-FLOP. UNTIL I SEE IT WITH MY OWN 2 EYES, I SAY LIAR LIAR , PANTS ON FIRE.

AFTER THE FLOP , NOPE I DONT SEE AA GETTING FOLDED EITHER. MAYBE IF THE FLOP CAME ALL 1 SUIT THAT I HAVE NONE OF & A LARGE BET WAS MADE. MAYBE I FOLD BUT I DOUBT IT.

SO NEXT TIME SOMEONE FOLDS AA, YOU GET A SCREEN-SHOT, AND POST IT. I SAW NONE, SO AS I SAY ::

LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE

Dammed if you do and Dammed if you don't.....


Good luck....

no way u fold aces first hand pre flop. the only way i do that is if its a big freeroll with a big prize pool and everyone is all in in that case ur aces are going to win only around 30% of the time then id opt to lay id down

I never folded AA preflop in a FR and I think I will never do.
Even in a big freeroll, I take my chances to double, triple or whatever with a better preflop hand than the rest of players there.
Start a FR with this advantage could be the difference between just reach ITM and win the tournament.

Never fold AA in any tournament PF, maybe a satellite if its close to the bubble but still, dont fold it pre.

As ever with AA if challenged you know you have the best starting hand and so are winning - why even consider folding and giving chips to someone that you know has a weaker hand?

If it's the first hand how can u raise...everybody has the same amount of chips...so u can't raise.

In a freeroll you are even money to get one or two all ins in the hand. You still have the best hand available and preflop is where you want to push in not wait for bad hands to improve. The number of callers will decrease your chances of winning but you always are ahead. (remember in a freeroll any play is +ev because all you can lose is your time spent playing) Definitely go for it.

bet half your stack, if you shove all in there will be callers with rags, your position is also important, in early position, bet in ration of stack and not in ratio of blinds, make the player commit a large portion of their stacks but not too much that they think they might as well go all in , in free rolls, all in during first hand is not so scary, a raise for about a third of the entire stacks should be sufficient

i'd go allin with a max of 2 players. If there's more youll get a chance to get cracked by any [shit] cards. Tough decision tough, to fold your AA in the first freerollturn. Thank god it never happend to me before.
