KK and an A flops and half of stack in the pot?
Early in a tourney, Blinds 25/50, I with 2100 in chips UTG+1 raise to 150 with KK, two seats down get reraised to 400, everyone else folds, I rereraise to 1100, and two seats down thinks for about a minute then calls. Flop has an Ace and no draws for me, pot is 2275 and I have 1000 left. I went allin, he called with AK and I lost. This is a tough situation with most my money in the pot. Is the only correct move, check and fold if he bets?

What do you do with your KK when you're already all-in and the pot is re-raised by AA?
OK, sorry, I'm still bitter over that beat from earlier tonight. |

I personally push this preflop.

check and call any bets from him, at least this way you get your chips in against lower pairs drawing very slim that would have folded to your push on the flop, and you obviously lose the same against any A.

I don't like the re-raise to 1100. I think you should have pushed PF. If he calls all-in w/ AK great for you.

The reraise to T1100 is correct. You don't want him to fold AK.
After 3 raises BTF the only hand he could have without an ace is QQ. I'd check/fold this down and curse the kings. |

[/ QUOTE ] I would even just call his reraise. That makes the pot much smaller (and you're less invested) and then fire off a continuation bet of maybe 2/3 the pot or so on the flop. Hope for a fold, but if he comes back at you all in, you gotta let it go, especially this early in a tournament. I just don't think an all in is warrented PF this early in a tourney w/ only one actor. If say 3 people had called his raise orsomething, that's an easy push. edit: What I'm really hoping for is to keep him in the hand, and a push is probably gonna force him out, or at least runs a high risk of it. I'm also hoping that ace doesn't flop, and I'm definatly check/raising here, probably all in on the flop if it doesn't. |
