Re: Record for fewest chips ever won when flopping a Royal Flush?

Limping UTG with JKs? I don't like it. Fold preflop.
CAlling a raise with ATs... in early position? ALso don't like it. Fold preflop.

Think of all the Royal Flushes you would be giving up...
Definately agree with the KJs, not sure what I was doing there.
The ATs was a bit different. The initial raiser min raised earlier with very little, the rest of the table was fairly passive early on and it would only take 3% of my stack to call. It is an easy hand to get away from if anyone reraises or if I miss the flop. I could have TPTK (would highly doubt an overpair if it didn't get reraised), two pairs, a set, a nut flush / straight draw etc. With a smaller stack I fold even if it wasn't raised initially but with a fairly big stack I'll play these hands once in a while.
Maybe it is a leak but I think I'm able to get away with small losses on hands like this and convert them into nice gains when they do hit which isn't all that uncommon. Is the consensus, given my explanation, that I should be folding that ATs without hesitation?
