    Give this thread a bump when you next fold your Aces to pre-flop action and it turns out you'd have trebled up, because 70% of the time, that's what's going to happen.

    Did anyone see the Turbo coverage tonight, was well weird. Aces held up, shorter stacks won all-ins, it was absolutely crazy!

    Ok mate take care, if you're not enjoying it and you're not making money there aren't many more excuses to spend time on it.

    Good luck out there.

    don't play to make money ,play for fun and try and breakeven or just under each month but not happened for 9 months now so throwing money away all the time may aswell play bingo or stick it on horse but on William hill instead as not donateing to sky no more

      Let us leave AA out of this for a second and just list some simple truths here. Follow these and learn.



      Playing a hand perfectly and losing =  Good play
      Playing a hand badly and winning =  Bad play
      Making a bad fold and you would have lost = Bad play
      Making a good fold and you would have won = Good play

      Winning or losing the individual hand is totally irrelevant. Good play is good play and bad play is bad play. Good play time and time again will make a winning player. Bad play time and time again makes a losing player

    Explain that 3rd line to me, I've read it a few times, can't work it out. A bad fold and would have lost is bad play? Thanks in advance.

    Yeah like OP.... folds AA, then says 'well I would have lost to a set' so therefore it's a good fold. The result doesn't stop it being a bad fold pre

    LOL I give up! It was an [OR] clause! Ideally you can have fun [AND] win money, but it's still understandable to continue playing if you fulfil only one of those criteria. You describe having neither, so even if your reasons for not enjoying it maybe suspect or statistically flawed, it doesn't change the fact that you're not enjoying it and should therefore spend your time on something else. Life's too short and all that. Again, GL.

    lost cause mike, no point bothering, he will realise one day but until then its pointless trying to educate someone that dosn't want to learn.

    Depends on how much money someone wants to give me to fold AA pre - other than the money considerations it's never a fold unless you have 2/3 all ins before you - then it gets tricky.
