Would you ever fold pocket kings preflop ?

[mouTAT]

After a 4 bet preflop barreling flop we went all in in the turn an A in the river he had ATo with no draws for him in flop and turn it was frustrating

 

[steve01991]

probably not, especially in a nine player table where the aces are spread out

It would depend on the situation, close to the Bubble I suppose I could possibly fold K/K after all in a Tournament with a large enough prize pool I have folded A/A in this situation, and I was proven right to do so as the Bubble boy went out, leaving me in the money and the person who took him out would have beaten me as well.
Early on in a MTT If I was struggling then I would possibly call an all-in with any Pocket pair, I once heard 2 players talking about how one had folded Pocket Deuces pre-flop, and had he called he would have won the last hand, I said "Boy if I had Deuces I would have been all-in." They both laughed and I was dealt Pocket 4s in the very next hand. I shoved and one asked "did you get your Deuces?"
I just replied "Oh this hand is better than Deuces" I got one caller and I turned my 4/4 over and said "this is twice as good" I beat the caller who had A/K suited and I took a well needed double up. Even the caller was laughing after I beat him but at the end of the game I had some fun, and to me that is reason why I play Poker!

When the fun Stops, STOP!

sure. if its going to be gamble or i fear or feel the loose. even if i won few many hands before those kings, if four bet already before me.

 

[Lucky_Shark]

Only when I was distracted by something and my time bank was running out. Lol. It's the same with AA.

I've never folded pocket pairs below tens preflop.

Hi,

Pair KK is very very strong cards.
Depend from that if the preflop game is all in from other player before me or just value preflop betting.....its never good idea to lose opportunity to see the flop with this strong hand.
If i am last to play pre-floop near never fold.

 

[weralomos]

I've never folded pocket pairs below tens preflop.

Even in a situation where there are 5 players at the table, everyone has more chips than you, and everything happens on Bubble?

 

[moularaki]

i might fold if it's the buble in a tourney

 

[deputat]

If I like to be succes in the tournament I would wait and fold them because the kings were come so the Aces will come, too

 

[Ronaldo7]

Never ever... If you can be so scared to fold second best hand you should't play poker...

 

[Poeffy]

I always play KK's. I am also more lucky with KK then AA.

 

[PLAYFUL1]

The only time i fold pp KK's is never

 

[fang215874]

Never. This is only possible on buble. Just if you throw it away, then what hands to play on?

 

[2fingershuffle]

Fold K's preflop

No chance!

 

[mclay]

At the beginning of the tournament, if there are three all in front of you, then you can throw the kings.

 

[kanycta99]

Often my KK hit AA. so in the 10% I would drop the KK without hesitation.

Hi, I'm pharaoh ramses 2 at the tables and if I receive a pair of kings pre-flop, it is more than certain I will redouble the bet without stopping to think if there will be aces since it is a very strong hand and that is usually won, for me the kk are excellent to double bets; Greetings. pharaoh ramses 2:icon_fara

 

[VikyGia]

HI

I go with all the chips, or raise very strong to protect my hand.

 

[aissam18]

Yeah i will fold it and i even folded AA on a 5 way all in and i was lucky cuz i was losing

 

[viacheslavtezikov]

If I play in a tournament, then KK never fold. When I play cash games, against a very tight player, I can fold KK to his reraise.

 

[korbal29]

Maybe in wsop or millions of dollars and I pretty sure know the player who pushed before me

 

[tenk27]

depends what kind of player are you playing against .I never threw them away and I lost many times

 

[CTPA3]

KK they move very often, so I usually go to 4-bet, and then I see if it makes sense to push. And sometimes you have to reset it, although it's such a pity)))

 

[HRVATSKIBOGMARS]

Maybe sometimes is not good decision for me but I have never fold KK. These is not poker code in my blood. I always want to see flop.
