Good job!
I would sometimes call, sometimes fold in the same situation depending in what mood I'm in. Or I would just flip a coin and let it decide for me. But, maaaan, really good job letting it go.

Bom trabalho!
Às vezes eu pagaria, às vezes desistiria na mesma situação, dependendo do meu humor. Ou simplesmente jogaria uma moeda e deixaria que ela decidisse por mim. Mas, maaaan, foi muito bom deixar isso para lá.
Thank you for participating your tip is very important for my evolution

In micro-limit tournaments, folding KK preflop is always a mistake.

This is one of the examples that makes us fold with Kings without blinking.
Some people will tell you that it would be impossible to fold KK, but depending on the stage of the tournament, information from the opponents and knowing that we are in a multiway pot...
I believe it is a correct decision, but obviously we must analyze the surroundings.

Yes, I folded the King and Ace pair several times, especially if I had a bad position at the table in freezeout tournaments, and also when we were about to enter the paid seats.

Be careful not to get eliminated by my allin with 72 off. I am joking.

It's better to cry over a folded pair of Ks and continue in the tournament than to cry over a bad beat.

It depends on how you read it and the type of opponent, if you think that 2 or 3 go with an ace, yes, because they cancel each other out, if you think they go with a low par, no, because the chances of their The pairs that come out are multiplied by covering more cards, and someone always matches up with as. so you would be waiting for him or not to get 4 games of 7 on the card.

If you were not covered by the HJ, it would be a nice call. As you would be eliminated, calling four shovers is too risky. I would fold in this situation.

If you look at just the starting hands and not be biased because you've seen the run out of the hole cards and result.

Kings is a bad fold honestly chipping up in these spots can mean more then a min cash sometimes.

I don't know if I would fold. I would need more information from the players. But it was a good fold.

Depends on situation and game.
Let's say you're on the bubble of an EPT and 4 players go allin . Would you risk your tournament life for it ?
