    CO ($53.85)
    Button ($7.45)
    SB ($47.75)

    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
    eeevees are not monies yet...they are like baby monies.

    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.
