Re: Playing AA in big multi-player pots
You go too far when you talk about entering a 4-way all-in with something like K9 or 55. JJ does very well against 3 random hands. However, it doesn't do well against 3 hands that have decided to move in, particularly after seeing other hands move in. If 3 people move in before me, I don't think JJ will win 25% of the time, so I fold it. AA still does well against good hands, particularly AKo.
Survival is overrated. You lose in most tournaments anyway. Get your chips in when you are a clear favorite, and you will win more.
