You have AA. I call.

[shaniac]

This is from the Stars $650 WSOP qualifier going a little while ago.

By the time it's on me to put my last chips in the pot, I'm somewhere near 100% sure he has AA. Is this still a good call?

Getting about 3-to-1 on your money, I have no idea how you are going to fold KK here.

I think, even though you had a decent read on the guy for AA, he could've just as easily had QQ or AKs. I'm probably going to call here every single time.

I agree. In addition, you probably should have had all your chips in the middle when it first got to you. You're raise was very small given the pot size and a normal raise would have pot committed you. I think I would have pushed hoping to isoloate the all-in with a bunch of dead money.

I regretted not pushing immediately, of course--the thought that someone BEHIND me could have AA didn't cross my mind. I would have taken any and all action from the original raiser, though, and I guess I intended my small re-re-raise to get him to commit more money to the pot. But, again, in retrospect, that wasn't such good thinking.
