Default Re: $10 MTT Party Poker 1st Hand - Right Call?

Folding KK before the flop is acceptable only when you are on the bubble of a satellite and virtually guaranteed a seat by folding. On the first hand of a $10 tournament, I am calling and expecting to see all kinds of garbage besides AA.

I can tell you off the top of my head that you are ahead of the range you gave for Villain, but the way to do the calculation is to use pokerstove or a similar calculator to determine your equity against each of these hands, then multiply each result by the percent of the time you expect Villain to have each of these hands. Sum the totals, and you'll have the EV of the call.
