 Re: Laying down AA first hand
No chance I would fold - Will I get better chances/odds than that? Unlikely .....
Think it's different for the pro's as they have more of an edge on the field, possibly greater than calling as a 70% or so favourite - I dont think our edge is great enough to pass up Aces pre flop.....
If you give this other guy any respect at all, what position can he be in? If he has AA, it's probably a split pot, if he has a high pocket pair, you are an 80%/20% favourite, if he has AK (or Ax) he's in big trouble) ..... he's not even going into the hand with 2 live cards.....
