Default Re: Don\'t ever think of folding KK pre-flop

Against a single player never or If i cant get busted. But sometimes early on in low limit tourneys I will fold if there is more then 2 all-ins in front of me and it buts me all-in. Not that u could be facing AA but suited connectors and the likes which you do not have dominated. I include AA in this scenario. Has anyone ran it in SNGPT for AA/KK to call 3 ALL-ins ?

That's basically the main point of my OP. If the buy-in is $33 or below, I think your policy should be to never fold KK. Period. I'll grant that for the better players at the upper buy-ins, there may be exceptions, but a low buy in player should never fold KK. You're just giving up too much all the times that you're laying down the best hand to some donk re-raising with AQo, 55, pretty suited cards, or god know's what else.

I always post this hand when someone asks about folding KK preflop. This was from a $55. Sucks that I lost though.
