Has anyone ever folded aces preflop?

[mama66]

There was only once that I truly considered it but didnt do it. I was in a big game and we were on the bubble, i was quite shortstacked but trying to hang on because 1 more place got me a seat to a 75 k game. I looked down and saw them and thought of how many games ive gone out on the bubble. I told myself to fold them , but then I thought, I wouldn't be much oif a poker player if i folded pocket AA. For once they didnt get beat and I won my seat. I think i only cashed $15 in the 75k but it wqas $15 more than i had!

If you're just about to get in the money in a big tourney then everyone else is folding good hands as well. Most will fold to your pocket Aces bet because it should be huge in this situation but so should the blinds. If you fold pocket Aces you will never win!

Yes I have on numerous occasions.

YOU SHOULD fold AA if:-

• Your near the bubble or you with in 11 players of the bubble with 60% or less than The Chip Leaders Stack “GET IN THE CASH”!
• You have slowrolled and the Flop has a flush or a striaght possibilities on it and a player before you goes ALLIN! “LIVE TO FIGHT ANOTHER DAY”
• You have a massive chip lead (Computer) YOU have still got AA after the flop,and more than 3-4 players go allin in front of you! “YOU DON’T NEED THE ACTION”
• You don’t Fancy it for what ever reason.

AA= 3to1 to win, just because you have AA it doesn’t mean your going to win I Love Busting other players Ace’s its my personal FETISH especially in low limits

What Total JOY being called:- A Joker, A F**King Muppett, etc etc I just find it SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUNNYYYYY
