Pocket Aces in the first hand

It's always the best feeling when people mindlessly jam first hand of the tourney and you just have the goods. Great feeling to start with 2 or 3 starting stacks while everyone else only has 1!

Hey guys,

Have you ever had pocket aces in the first hand and there were 1,2 all-ins to you and you easily call the hand and win it after that?😀

Even better, I once was dealt aces in the first hand and kings in the second one. I shoved both and won. It was very sweet🙂!

It was a tournament I believe. It was a great way to start a tournament. Can remember if it was a Knockout or not but that would have been even better if it was. It was a long time ago. Those moments are almost as rare as a straight flush.

I wish

I have a rule where I never play the first hand of a trny, but if i get AA I am definitely shoving all in. I don't think its ever happened where i got AA on the first hand but if I did it would sure be a great start to the day!!!!
 
Hi Friend.

Mind you, I eliminated those 2 opponents and I was left with a good amount of chips, enough to reach a final table. 😀
 
yes , i had several times this play , but recently i lose it twice , not a great feeling to lose first hand with aces , especially tournaments with buy of 4,40 $ and 5,50$ 🙂
 
From reading others comments I must be really unlucky as aces rarely hold for me
 
well fun story, had it after winning a sat to 22$ bounty builder first hand AA

open it, 1 guy goes all-in i call another guy calls, and i call

Villian 1 KK - Villian 2 AK, Me AA river the K lol

This one still hurts to this day.. all that griding in the sat just to bust like that
 
I had many times pocket AA after 2-3 all-ins and I always called- Taking the hand is sweet, but the lost hand is much more painful,

I had AA hand two times in a row at the beginning of the tourney. And both won with all-in bet.
 
Pocket As have only screwed me once in a game, ended up with two pair but on the river out came a flush. It was heart wrenching.
 
Starting aces are very dangerous, because at first you can fly out with the first hand like playing roulette where in 80% of cases you can get lucky.

Yes and yes! 😀 In fact the very first time I played in a real, live, $-tournament I was dealt AA on the very 1st hand, which was bitter-sweet because I declined a house prop-bet, which was to have the first hand w/pkt aces. I won the hand but missed out on $400... :banghead:
Oh well, live and learn, right?
 
AA doesn't always win. Sometimes someone gets his outs. I got a call from 74S and lost with AA. The opponent was lucky.
 
Yes I had a heads-up match that lasted 1 minute because I got AA first hand, went all in and the opponent did aswell, with KK 🙂 No one hit anything and the game was over.
 
Yeah, they're great if they hold, but pretty soul-crushing if they get cracked first hand of a big event.

Yes, many times.
 
Honestly, AA first-hand is a little frightening. Because when you have such cards, you automatically, without hesitation, go all-in. And at least 60-70% - you lose to weaker cards, and stop the game. This is very frustrating.

Yes, I've had actions with 4 players all in and I made the call smiling.

Got it safe!
