I would fold AA preflop if I had a read on the players.

assuming we are up against 2 worse pairs then we are a big enough favourite.

the only reason you"d fold is if you felt unlucky, but in that case you"d have probably given up poker by then.

If we are using the "I"m not coming all the way to vegas to lose in the first level" argument, I"d counter it with the "I"m not coming all the way to vegas to fold Aces preflop" argument

LOL, you sound like a man who has had his fill of "fold aces preflop" threads

I"ve laid down AA on two occasions - both times to 4 all ins (stupid wild games) after I"d raised.

Both times I would have lost - once to trip Q"s and the second to a straight.

Like has already been said, it depends on the situation.....

This is now the undisputed most asked question and boring now in poker!! All that was missed off is its the first hand in the world series of poker etc
Almost as boring as bad beat stories (unless there your own of course lol)
