Maybe I should have folded here - Poker Beats Brags and Variance

I was playing in a local B&M MTT today and the following occurred:

Blinds 100/200, I was in BB with about 5K when an EP went all in for 2k. An LP who covered me called and I re-shoved; LP called again.

Me: A

EP: 10

LP: A

Flop: K

Turn: Qx

River: 9x

I know there is no strat in BBV, but I felt I should have folded this hand on the bad flop and I wondered if you all concur.

I'd probably call on the flop and fold on the river.

Folding AA on that flop is defo +EV long term.

I like an aggressive line here

I'd probably stand up and slap the dealer in the face with my dick whilst roaring a battle-cry

As played, tip the spaghetti monster and skip home.

That's what I thought too but then the cute little dealer ninja-kicked me in the juniors and put me down before I could prove my overwhelming manhood by thrashing the security staff.

You didn't hit your set so I prefer a check fold on the flop

Lol, no it's not. It's all situation dependant.

Anyways, AAs are ahead of lots of villains range, AQ, AK, K10, 22s to 10s. AAs are flipping ( or close to to flipping ) with some of villains range. And obviously, they are behind of some of villains range. When they are behind they are not usually crushed though, as when we are up against KQ, QJ, KJ, we still have 9 outs on the flop. Even when facing a set we still have 6 outs. Folding AAs on that flop every time is like setting money on fire fish. BBV is full of tards who play 5NL and breakeven.

I'd rather repeatedly slam my balls with the car door then get it inbad with AA in a MTT when clearly behind. As played....easy rip up your cards and throw them in the dealers face. As he's reacting to the burst of bits of cards coming his way, you forcefully spit aiming at his mouth. Follow this pro move with vulgarity and verbally slander his mother. This will not only gain you +++street rep, but will likely ensure comps from the casino to compensate for your bad luck/stupidity for overplaying AA.

Good luck.

I would provide independent confirmation of this, but I took some hayfever medication and can't think clearly.
