if KK is one of your biggest losing hands then you've got some issues that to be resolved..

I like to belive that I been unlucky with KK in my small sample.. I had a win % with kk that was as low as 50%. And I think I have run into AA twice with this small sample.. Lets hope more hands mean better stats for me [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

true.. when your sample size grows it should (hopefully) get a lot better.

and yeah, with a rock rr'ing preflop i'd think - but for the average player, [censored] that i'm pushing!

You should run KK vs AA in a 6-max game about once every 10,000 hands. You will win 1 out of 5 of those, so you will only lose KK vs AA in 6 max 1 every 12,000 hands.

So to the 2nd poster who was complaining about his 2k hand downswing.... you sir, are a moron.

Hero is UTG with KK and raises to 2.5, all folds to SB who raises to 4.5, Hero re-raises to 12, SB raises to 32. Can i fold now? What else is he reraising and leaving some in our stacks for? Could this ever be JJ or QQ?

I don't think it is unreasonable to put him on AA-QQ, AKo, AKs. Against that range you are a favorite. With the added possibility that it is indeed AA you are probably about 50% or a slight dog.

Definitely worth a call here.

Now if there were raises and reraises with other players involved it would be a different story.

You don't give stack sizes or level. But I think, when in doubt PUSH! His stats would help. But I don't let go of KK pf unless the guy is Lord Rock (I play 25-50NL)

And yes, I've seen this with JJ, QQ and even AK. A lot of donks slowplay AA at low levels.

I agree.. this exact play happened to me yesterday, villian had 99 (he spiked a 9) I would push all day with that. ahh finally got to vent that bad beat also.

Doubled stacked, I don't think folding is a horrible idea. You'll see an overplayed QQ or AK here periodically but 75% of the time its the exact hand that you thought it was.

Single stacked I'm folding like never.

at $25NL KK cant be folded. you would have to have a R,RR,RR in front of you and even then you need to think twice. This subject has really been exhausted already

You will not see aces enough here to making this push incorrect , this is a push at almost any limit. He has AA o well.

I just pushed my AA vs. his KK the other day...

Guess what the flop-turn-river was???

RAG- KING- RAG.... KING - RAG....

YAY.

Just a small story that you're dogged if he has AA, but poker has a way of revealing that 18% in funny (not really funny to me at that time) ways...
