There's just no way you can assume Sammy has AA, AQ, AT, or QQ here. If I remember correctly, Sammy limped in preflop and then called the raise, which would significantly discount the chances of AA and QQ here.

You can eliminate AA, QQ, and AQ from his holdings in this hand.

Because he didn't come back over the top preflop? (I think the first post is wrong, he did open raise and got reraised). I really doubt this. Its seems to me AQ isn't re-raising here. QQ may want to see a flop, see if A K no flop before commiting on first hand. Even AA can slowplay.

Sammy is unpredictable. The fact that its the first hand of the WSOP is another variable to take into account. You can't just eliminate these hands based on the preflop play.

While a bit crazy, Sammy's no fool. He ain't going broke with trips here (Especially since we can eliminate AK and AJ from his holdings, right? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]. So the only hand you put Sammy on when you push must be a str8. Are you saying Sammy's calling all-in with say A6??
