One time i should have fold them

I was BB with 22k (semifinal table) and i was the chip leader of nmy table and the second had 21k.

Before me 3 went all-in, even the second and the third of my table and i decided to call risking to be almost kcked out from the torunament.

Tho others had KK, JJ and 99.

the board had a 9 and a J and i stayed with only 4k.

Fortunally i reached the 5th position on the final table but i really shoyuld have fold that hand even if was the best hand.

i probably couldnt live with myself, but sometimes you have to fold. when there are 3 people all in already and its near to the bubble, you might wanna consider it.

Never say never.

I slow played AA, and got raised all in on the flop (Q,Q,K). After lengthy deliberation I folded. Fortunately for me I got to see the turn and river. Dude had QQ in the hand.

Suffice to say, I would have lost if I raised all in before and after the flop.

Hard to do, but I did it. Folded AA.

I fold sometimes AA when we were in 4 people and only 3 people have to be paid; three of us including me have a lot of chips while the last went all in with the big blind ; in order to avoid the possible come back of the 4th I folded the AA;

the man at the small blind calls and showed KK and eliminated the 4th player.

After this elimination we were in the prizes (unfortunately I finished 3rd but with 200$)

Congrats to gammonmad for folding after that flop, although in my opinion it is an easy let go at that point. Preflop though is much tougher. I said no earlier, but after giving it some thought, I've concluded that in a situation like kingjack described I might be able to. The other maybe situation would be on the bubble where the winners all take the same prize, ie there are 5 seats to be won in a qualifier to another tournament. Other than that I don't think I could.

Preflop: 99.999% chance of all in, 0.001% for fold.

after flop: 50/50

I don't know what the four 9's do, but the Ace I think is pretty high.

I think the only time I could fold AA preflop is with multiple all-ins before me ... example like 3-4 ''big'' stacks going all all-in and Im chipleader but a lot ... I would probably fold my AA and let them beat the hell out of each other hehe :P If for example it's sngs and I would get in the money by letting them beat each other and still with a chip advantage.
