KK vs AA vs AA
Double rigged.
Double rigged would be a K on the river.
Sweet laydown.
Once was on Party a couple years ago in $50 buy in NL about a month after I bought Poker Ace HUD. A guy with a VPIP of 4% who had raised pre-flop 5 hands in 900 reraised all in to an initial raise. His AA beat the other guys QQ (would have beaten my KK) and I remember thinking that Poker Ace paid for itself a few times over that hand.
Your hand is interesting without extreme reads like this. Part of me admires the fold, and part of me wonders if you would have posted the hand if it was another KK vs QQ or QQ vs AK :O
Would you always make this fold vs 2 unknowns?
Even with fairly unknown players, I think I may have had 50 hands or less against each, given the action I thought it was a pretty easy laydown.
Nobody else here drops this hand?
/g2
If there is no collusion suspected here and the table has been playing pretty aggressively up to this point, then I think that it may have been a bad lay down. I just cannot see myself laying down pocket Kings in most pre-flop situations.
Imagine if all of these re-raisers had hands like A/J, A/A, A/Q, in this spot. I have seen this happen before. Now your Kings are stronger in this type of situation i.m.h.o.
I personally have called an all in -w- K/K pre flop against someone who ended up showing his/her A/A on more than one occasion, and I ended up winning the pot more often than you might think.
I might think 18% of the time. How often did you win?
I think that it happened about 4 out of 7 times for me within the last 3 years. But I am also a believer in 'luck', I seem to be luckier -w- pocket kings than I am with pocket aces. maybe it's just in my head.
Well played!
