    Default Your play?

    I dont have the hand history, but this occured last night playing 25NL on party... All players involved have ~ equal stacks of around 25 dollars

    I pick up KK UTG+1 and raise to 1 dollar. A player 2 away from me raises to 3 dollars. Folds to the button who pushes for ~20 dollars. Its back to me...What do I do, Im multitabling and havent been playing for long enough to have any real good reads.

    There was a long thread a while back about folding KK pre flop. I think the general opinion shared by most of the people by the end of that discussion was to just never fold it pre flop no matter what. Get all your money in every time. The times you fold and its QQ vs AK that you would have been up against cancel out the times that you call and are actually up against AA, so just never fold it.

    and kk is 66% favourite against any ace

    and there's a 0.49 % chance your up against aces so its +ev everytime...even though i seem to lose more than my fair share lol.

    When three players are all raising and reraising pre flop, the chances you are up against AA increases to a lot higher than .49%. Still, it's the only hand that is way ahead of you and there are other hands that play this aggressively pre flop like AK and QQ who you dominate.

    25 NL = instant push with KK. Too many people at this level play QQ, JJ, AK all just the same as AA.
    Dealer: bencathers has two pair, Aces and Deuces
    Dealer: Tbags has two pair, Kings and Jacks
    Dealer: Tbags finished the tournament in 256th place
    Tbags [observer]: another scumbag gets there on this site lol
