daniel negreanu blog hand?

was just reading Daniel negreanu's blog

"UTG makes it 4700 UTG +2 calls, next guy makes it 13k, the button makes it 32k. I'm in the small blind, sitting on about 175k in chips with the average being about 115k, and I see red aces! I make it 60k, the first two fold, and the next player, with a big stack, moves all in. I call, fully expecting to chop the pot, but he shows KK. Not trying to be mean to the guy, but I think if you are ever going to fold KK pre-flop this was the most obvious of spots to do it. My range in this case is precisely AA or KK. He can never be ahead."

was wondering if he thinks that his opponent should or would fold anything but AA why would he ever 4 bet here.
even thou he did call wouldn't flatting be better as you might stack QQ or AK on the flop as he most likely folds these pre, + your stacking KK on most boards anyways.

There's no such thing as a 5-bet bluffing range in MTTs. it's KK+

that said, anyone who has seen DN play cash games lately knows he flatcalls with big pairs in the blinds and reraises with junk.

[fulksy]

yes so why 5 bet here as your folding every hand except KK+ and a lot of times its only AA that calls, what extra value do you get by 5 betting? flatting seems so much better?

if stacks really deep i don't see how daniel can do anything bet 5bet there because lots of people can potentially setmine

There's no such thing as a cold 5-bet bluffing range in MTTs. it's KK+

you clearly havent seen tjollerboy in the 1k WCOOP

Tjollerboy is baller, laying down the nut straight when he holds a blocker was nice.
