if the players in the $55s are anything like the ones in the $33s, i push and laugh when his KQ/KJ hits the three outer on the river.

normally I would too, but every play that he has made so far screams AA. Don't get me wrong, I still think that you will sometimes see KQ,KJ but I don't think you will be seeing it 1/5 times or whatever to make this a profitable push.

I'd fold.

Assuming either you are crushed or he is crushed, he needs to flip over crap about 1 times in 4 to make playing for the rest of his stack a good play.

The way he played it, it looks an awful lot like he has AA/KK. He has me convinced my AK is bad and I fold. If he was able to pull off that sequence with crap more power to him.

I can fold and still have a decent stack to play the end game (~1400) so I take my lumps and lay it down.

Of course in the heat of the game I might push lol.

hey raptor.

how did you double up to get your 2k stack? did you show down the rocks or suckout? i know this info might not be that crucial but its info for info sake.

i think it is safe to push here knowing you are ahead most of the time. if he has one of those few instances where he has aa or kk then that sucks but i think youll see ak here just as much not to mention the times you have the villain outkicked or slaughtered drawing to two outs after overplaying his/her under-big-pocket-pair.

I think it's either a split pot or you're behind to AA, with AA being more likely, so I'd fold.

I would give him 65% to have AA or something like that, no ?

You have still 1500.
I would fold, even if I pushed like a maniac in the poll

I push and then am very results orrienated. If he had AA I am mad at myself. If I have him beat I think it was the right thing to do.

i thought for a bit then folded. no need to call. if i call and loose im below 500, if i call and win i have a sizeable stack. if i fold i still have 1500. unnecessary risk to call when everything points towards being beaten. holla
