Default Re: Theoretical situation.. first hand of the WSOP main event

this is one if the dumbest posts i have ever read. Good idea to fold AA with a chance to double up on the first hand. even a player as good as phil ivey has to get lucky to win the wsop, just look at this years final table.

I apologize if such a thread has been created before, but here we go...

Imagine you are a pro, say someone as good as Phil Ivey. It is the first hand of the WSOP main event. You are in the BB. Everyone folds to the SB, who moves all in.

You look down and find /

C'mon, Phil isn't going to risk his tourny on a crap hand. He might have you beat.

1. He wasn't suggesting to fold; He was just asking.

2. There are a number of weaknesses worse than this that are responsible for making us money.

AA is a close fold. KK is a very easy fold. Pocket horseshoes on the other hand, you're a [censored] if you fold those.

Why does it matter that it's the first hand? If it was the 10th or 100th hand of the WSOP main event would anyones answer change? (No)
