Shit.... that beats the hell out of bubbling.



I think.

bubble boy gets alot of coverage.


I reckon your math is pretty decent there. nice job.

If i go, god willing, all in first hand, id literally be crapping myself.

At least you would get TV time, probably.
Worth a shot.
$10,000 for some TV time, sounds fair to me.

Uh........................ no thanks.

You figured the odds wrong, dude.

You have to get dealt KK.

Flop is AAK.

Villian has AK. Oliver Hudson style.

I mean geez...you give us a situation where you get busted first hand and it doesn't involve Kod? The fuck are you thinking.

[Talking Poker]

Please.... you think I'm gonna go broke with KK vs AK on an AAK flop??? I don't think so.

Now, if the flop was AKK and all the money went in, I can picture him turning up AA and spiking his one outer for quads over quads, but no way am I going broke on the the first hand of the WSOP with anything less than the stone cold nuts.

What would you do if you get dealt KK first hand?

In MP and you raise to 4xBB

Big blind min-reraises you

You re-raise back

BB pushes

TP...

==================
I wrote this kinda fast and that actually screams AA

But, ignoring the above, what would go through your mind if you get dealt KK on first hand? Is there anything that would happen to get you off of it preflop?

[Talking Poker]

Well, from what you described, I think a fold is in order (and pretty clear). I mean, at BEST, he's also got KK, but it's a lot more likely he's got AA, so I'll just fold and start off the tourney with 9100 chips or whatever (first raise to 200, his min reraise to 350, my rereraise (which I may not even make) to 900ish, and then he pushes for > 10x THAT). No big deal.

Like I said, I'm not going to throw all my money in (especially CALL it all in) with anything less than the nuts. Not early anyway. That's just stupid.
