Calling an all in bet pre flop?

Bluebottle88 · Sep 17, 2019

I had KK... Villain goes all in... I called... I lost to AA..

Am I OK to call with KK or should I always assume he has AA?

Absolutely normal call.

Yes call, even sweeter when you beat AA, with K on the flop. Had this yesterday, but beat the AA, with a straight to the K

Never folding KK in online cash. ALL IN

I think when you have this hand you can assume that you will win 80 percent of the time. So you should call because the chances of finding a hand that are winning you are much lower than the times you will be in front. that even in the worst of situations when you met AA you still had a chance to turn up your king and make a set and win the hand. I think when that happens it's a hand to forget because you didn't lose your tournament in that specific hand, but in the worst hands that played badly or should not have played at all.

Normal call. Hardly he has AA, that a lot chance to him have AK, AQ, QQ, JJ and sometimes AJ.
You can lose against other hands but the most times you have more chance than him.

Good afternoon.

lucrative move? I don't know, villains won't always be with AA. I pay and most of the time I take the pot 80% on average.

Call or not Call

I believe you made the right play. I have won and lost calling and going all-in with both against the other. Good luck with your game!

In my opinion it is okay to go all in, you will almost always have better hands, bad luck just had AA

Not all the time the villian has AA so all in pre with KK is not a bad call.

Joco413 · Sep 17, 2019

That was a good call. You were just unlucky to run into the only hand that beats you preflop.

"All Inners" preflop

It doesn't make any sense to go " All In" like they do preflop.

That's not playing proper poker!!

Yeah, the call is absolutely normal.

QQ can be folded with info maybe but KK is always a call.

Shit Happens next time you have AA vs KK.

In was playing in a 6 max cash game a few months ago. I had a few thousand hands on a player and he had a 3 bet stat of 0. I had KK and raised, he 3 bet all in, and I *reluctantly* called. He did have AA, and I knew he did, but even then, I couldn't/wouldn't fold.
