On the following hand, villain is a 70/30 maniac. His 4-bet totally throws me for a loop. I didn't really want to play for stacks with AK, but I couldn't fold it either. In hindsight, I think the best plays are push, fold, and call, in that order. Guess which one I chose?

That's it, really. I'm very happy with the way I played the rest of my hands. Oh, actually there's one more, and I'm going to post it without the converter so the chat log is visible.

Nevermind, I forgot that AP's hand histories suck ass. The chat is not included, so I'll just add it manually.

Villain is a pretty solid player (for these stakes) and I haven't seen him do anything too fancy. His play has been fairly straightforward for the most part.

Now of course I have never ever folded KK preflop, and I probably never will. There have been a few times in the past where I suspected that I might be up against AA and put the money in anyway. But this situation was very strange and unique. For some reason, I was 90% sure he had Aces. So why did I call? I can't think of a logical explanation.

I just felt like I had to. You never fold KK preflop, it's a rule. If I play 100,000 hands against somebody who only PFR with AA and limps everything else, I'll still get all the money in preflop and get stacked 80% of the time. I know that makes absolutely no sense at all. It's just a fate that I feel resigned to.

If I never fold KK, and my opponents never fold KK, then the AA vs KK situations break even over time, and everything else is gravy. This makes KK a very easy hand to play preflop and is still very very +EV. I know that this may not be the most optimal way to play it, but it's profitable and I'm not going to give myself headaches over it, especially at these stakes.

It just felt weird to make that call when it was very obviously -EV at the time.
