No reads at all, this is my first hand at the table.





PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

UTG ($50.95)
UTG+1 ($97.20)
MP1 ($62.10)
MP2 ($53.70)
MP3 ($97.10)
CO ($53.85)
Button ($7.45)
SB ($47.75)
Hero ($50)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A, A.
3 folds, MP2 raises to $1.5, 1 fold, CO raises to $4.5, 2 folds, Hero raises to $14, MP2 folds, CO calls $9.50.

Flop: ($29.75) 9, 7, K (2 players)
Hero bets $19, CO raises to $38, Hero ??????


This is tough, I would have to say opponenet either has AK or KK.....but really there is no way to know because I have no PT stats on this guy and its the first hand at the table. The pot is giving me pretty good odds here but I still could save 17 dollars by folding. Any advice guys?

I'm afraid he will have KK pretty often, but getting that price I can't imagine it's very good to fold. If you lose it's just one of those hands I guess.

Oh, and you have a running spade draw and two aces which gives you about a 70% chance to improve on Stars.

Doesn't KK bet all-in pre-flop most of the time? I think your stack is easily small enough to call this.

you have to call this getting 5:1. I agree with biondino that KK usually pushes preflop

Call. AK/KK play this the same way and AK is much more likely. If he flips KK, make sure you hit your runner-runner nut flush.

Yea I came to the same conclusion as you guys. He turned over KK and I got stacked...oh well what can you do. On a side note that was my first loss with AA over 30 times...not too bad.
