If you want an opinion, I"m folding aces there.  (Although, I"d need to know stack sizes, for definite)

Very unlucky though.

Fullhouse beats fullhouse beats a set beats pocket aces.  And I thought I was running bad at the moment.

crap shuffle I reckon.

What stack sizes would make you fold an ace and another ace pre Leigh?
Or do you just have sick levelling skillz on teh APAT forum?

If I"ve got them all covered, then I"m probably going to call.  If I"m shortstacked, then I"m probably going to call.

If all the stack sizes are fairly equal, and near enough average, then there are better spots than calling with aces against three opponents.

At least, in my head thats the case.

Out of curiosity, what"s the odds of winning preflop with the aces ?  I thought it was about 50% when against three other hands ?    I may be totally wrong.

so you are saying you wouldn"t enter into a flip in this spot?   What about if you had QQ and knew the other guy had AK - 50% flip for a double up.... most would probably take that in a standard online tourney that soon becomes a shovefest...... so why not take a 50% flip when you have a chance to quadruple up???

In an $11 2500chip 13min blind online tourney - never ever ever ever ever ever ever folding AA preflop.

Fullhouse beats fullhouse beats a set beats pocket aces.

An outrageous misrepresentation of the facts. Tony had two pair.

I"ll go back to the admin stuff and leave these strategy threads to the experts.  


Oh, and if it was a level, I"d have said something along the lines of :-

"Gutted Tony, I bet that made you want to throw your APAT Stud bronze medal out of the nearest window......."

[LongshanksED]

Without using a stove or odds calculator, I heard that aces in a 3 way pot, pre flop is about 50% to win

once it goes 4 handed  then your down to around 40%

but it you think that"s bad then check this thread I posted a year ago

slight adjustment due to not knowing suits exactly but
:as: ac   57.40%
ah js      4.73%
    17.96%
kh kd     18.78%
so an easy fold eh mr wiltshire lol and yes if i had my bronze and gold medal i would have thrown them down someones throat all below ave stack apart frm kk who went on to finish  5th i believe so at least he used the chips well  :"(

[Chipaccrual]

I"m calling then.

Very unlucky Tony.

 AJ had trips. Not a set, massive difference. Sorry to nit pick. dont think he could fold aces here imo. Unless its like in final table sat with several seats up for grabs for instance.
