Short of an AA read, this is a call - but as this is the 2nd hand in, you can't possibly unless you have notes on the guy.

Call, if he shows AA thats Poker and the brutality of AK.

Call, he's probably on a club draw.

If he has a set, such is life.

Even if he turned over a club draw in my face, I would fold. It's the second hand of the tournament, and I dont want to be out 35% of the time after the second hand where the object of the game (one table tournaments) is survival...NOT accumulating a big stack early. Also likely are Aces up or a set. Later in the tournament easy call, second hand - easy fold.

Not this again.

Who gives a flying fck what hand you bust out on? I'd rather bust out on the second hand in 10th place than on the 80th hand in fourth place.

You have to take advantage of clear +EV opportunities, whether it's the first hand or the one-hundreth.
