Hey All,

I had a sick hand in a Live Tournament tonight.

The blinds are 50/100 I'm in the CO with AKs with 1 limper in the Pot. I raise 4x the BB to 400, the BB and Limper call.

The flop comes AA6

BB and Limper check to me I bet 425 the BB folds and raisers to 8000 then I re raise to 2000, He goes all in.

The limper and I are both deep stacked on around 6k.

there’s only 2 hands that beat me on the flop, 66 and A6. I think for 5 mins and then I decide to call.

He turns over A6, I don’t improve and bust.

Can I ever fold?

No reason to fold there, vilians in live game would shove there with A2 withouth thinking a second(not all of them, of course). You got a bad setup, thats all.

sick cooler but folding is horrible. He will probably play any other Ax hand here exactly the same way, and you beat all of them.

No, never. I might fold some weak ace, but not AK...

I mean deep stacked compaired to what you normaly start a tournement, because its a special tournement where you get 500 chips for each top 16 made during the month.

I was so close to folding, I wanted to make a sick lay down like Anette Obersted on WSOP, but I would of been sick if he showed me AQ.

However, who did raise the flop, were you IP or OOP against him.

IP I would just call the flop. However even OOP. Ev he had an ace he might probably bet all streets anyway. If you are beat, I am not sure if villain will get you all in for sure.

Make every easy shot, and make every shot easy.
