Hi guys,
I don`t really have a hand to post, but it was just a quick question regarding when your first hand is AA.
At the 1$ SNG there are times when players will go all in on the very first hand. If you`re sitting with AA, do you go all in? or do you fold?

Thanks

I could never fold aces


i just got rolled on the river 1st hand $11R had AA myself and 2 others all in preflop against Kd 9d and Ks 8s flopped 7d 7s 10s turn Qc river...................5s thats poker in theory the next time i get rockets i would do the same knowing every hand you miss with them brings you closer to winning with them. and hopefully it will be for a bigger pot.

Unlucky.

If your question is whether you should raise or go directly all-in with AA on the first hand, raise. Going all-in is donkey play. If someone goes all-in after you raise, easy call. I'd call with AQ maybe, the players who do that are so bad that they think any broadway and any ace is so good that they've certainly got the best hand. Or maybe they just want to steal the pot (investing 1.5k into a 90 chips pot just to steal is a very good play, in their point of view)...
