what are the chances of an ace flopping when you have KK?

100% on partypoker.

Keep betting, half the time nobody else will have an ace. on a reraise, fold.

you mean on a raise right?

on a side note, notice how novice players are just dying to say the word "reraise"?

i play in tourneys and cash games with complete newbies all the time and that's all they say. if i'm actually reraising a raise, i don't even say reraise, i just say raise. but these guys say "reraise" even when they are actually putting in the first raise.

oh well, just something i've noticed. they also say "raise" when they mean bet. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I'm actually wondering if this isn't a clever marketing ploy on Party Poker's part. People love to play Ace/Any...so tweak your generator to give slightly MORE aces in those first 25 cards. Keep the customers happy.

If an Ace falls on the flop and I have KK, thats too bad but its only like 20% or something. If someone gets a bet in before me I just fold & quietly hope they didn't have QQ.

I think this is probably a bad default plan.

This happened to me in my last hand on PP last night. I held KK and called a pre-flop raise. When an ace flopped, I played it very cautiously...when I determined nobody held an ace, I put the spurs on it....and I was right, nobody held an ace....the guy on my right held two of them.

Doh!

The 100% chances of an ace flopping when you have KK, is also matched by the 100% chance the guy with AA will merely check/call your betting your KK all the way to the river.

I always snicker inside when people are betting out and say "I'll raise....". Some people do it over and over, blissfully unaware of their major ignorance.

and you called me a "prick" because it kinda bothered me how norman chad called 3of a kind(without a pocketpair) a set.
