Laying Down KK preflop?
I don't have a hand history for this (played on PokerRoom)
Relevent Stacks: UTG+1: $3.75 MP2: $32.00 Hero(CO): $34.25 Hero Dealt Kd Ks Action: UTG+1 raises to $1 folded to MP2 who RR to $3.75 Hero re-RR to $10 UTG+1 calls all in. MP2 raises pot all-in. Hero:...? MP2 had been playing pretty weak-tight, never showing this much preflop action since I'd been at the table. UTG+1 doesn't bug me at all, he'd taken a bad beat a few hands earlier and had been kinda happy to bet his remaining stack since then. I'd been playing somewhat loose with selective agression. I was prepared to call, but then I stopped for a moment on a premonition. This guy was just playing too assuredly preflop for a weak-tight player. I considered that he maybe had KK as well, but that seemed unlikely, and even then I'm not as sure he would have played THIS agressively. I ended up folding, but since UTG+1 was all-in, I got to see if I was right or wrong. Anyone have thoughts about throwing away KK preflop? |

No.
There's an FAQ for a reason. Namely, that people ask "Shoudl I have laid down KK pre-flop" all the time. The answer is always "No." |

At these stakes, 3-handed, I don't think I would ever lay this down.

But I think he is posting this because he called and the villain showed AA and he lost his buyin. But hell no am I ever laying this down.

Re: Laying Down KK preflop?
I'm asking more about this in relation to the specific player I described. Someone who is weak-tight, and hasn't re-raised a PF raise since I sat down, and open-raises PF maybe once every two orbits.
What hands do you think someone who plays so weak would play this way? Anything besides AA or KK I doubt. Maaaaaaybe QQ, but I see that as less likely than another KK. |

Can't really ever throw away KK preflop at these stakes, no matter what.
