Ok, here is the situation:

Heads up
You -- 9k chips
Villian -- 1k chips

blinds at 300/600

Your opponent is a very loose/aggressive player that will play any two cards heads up.

He goes all in on the button. You look down at two red aces.

Now, the pot is giving you 4:1 to call this, but you are only a 4:1 favorite against most hands, some you are only a 3.5ish:1 favorite against (mid suited connectors), and you do not have the ace of spades. Do you call him?


Ok, assume you folded and lived to fight another day on that last hand (a good move I must say).

Very next hand you look down at two black kings. You limp, of course, hopefully to see a cheap flop.

Your opponent goes all in again. 1k to call into this 2.2k pot. Do you call, or do you read him for aces and fold? Heck, he might just have one ace and then he's ONLY a 2:1 underdog. So what do you do?

Why do we need the ace of spades?

I guess sarcasm doesn't translate too well over the internet... I guess nobody else has noticed the slew of retarded AA/KK threads popping up this week?

It hasn't been in general (I rarely go there). It's been right here at home, in Poker Strategy. btw, what's (sw) mean.. I'm such a forum slang noob.

You're already my favorite new person on the forum. I'm a big fan of Paul Phillips's.

Apparently, he's a fan of mine, too

Feed to you? How the hell would he have gotten a 9 to 1 chip lead if he played his aces like that? HAHAHAHHAAHAhA anyone who bought this is a sucker fish.. but I agree, jopke's should be in general...
