Odds of AA vs KK

[daviddem]

With 100bb stacks or less, it is extremely rare that it is correct to fold KK preflop. Like opp A raises, opp B reraises and opp C who is a nit shoves. Then you can start thinking about folding KK.

As Stargrinder said, not only it will only happen 4.4% of the time that your KK runs into AA, but even then you will still win about 1/5th of the time.

Refer Sammy Farha vs Barry Greenstein in season 1 of High Stakes Poker... The reason he hesitated so long is because of the depth of the stacks.

That was the last hand of the night IIRC and they were like 250bb deep. Greenstein took it like a man though.

What I did not understand is why Greenstein declined Farha's kind offer to run it twice after the K showed up on the flop.
