		Ok, no hand history coz i was steaming whent this happened. It was the silverroom NLHE freedrool (I know its a donkey tournament. The money wasn't the annoying thing, it was the beat itself, like everyone, i want to win) I'm in 1st with 29k, 2nd place is on my right with 23k, there's 33 left in the tournament. Blinds are 800/400 I'm in the BB with AA and everyone folds round to the button who throws his last 4k in to the middle. I think 'nice, thankyou'. Then the SB who is second place in the tourney re-raises all-in for 23k. She's been quite loose and has shown down some marginal hands and after all, i do have AA. I willingly called the bet and was quite happy to see her turn over AQos. The flop was Qxx turn x and I think you can probably guess that the river was the 'PR special - hit the 2 outter' Q This left me with a stack that was well below average and a whole load of tilt to deal with, 2 hands later I was out I know this was unlucky but taking all factors into account - my chip lead, the players still in, the size of the stack I was up against and so on - is there a time to fold AA?????

		For me yeah theres times to fold AA but not very many and this certainly isnt one of them. Your 93% versus the 23k stack you want your stack in here , 93/100 you get a FT stack and can ensure you make the proper payouts/take it down.

		If you fold here, you might as well hang a big AWAY sign around your neck and wander around your city for a few days.

		AA gave me a lot of headache yesterday, so I hope I never get that hand again. Seriously, never fold AA here like ever. It has been discussed between pros that if they saw the opponent`s holdcards and he went allin in the beginning with AK, it would be bad to call with QQ because the skill-advantage is too big, but you can`t fold here having better than 80% chance to win (QQ has 56-57% chance to win against AK.)

		What Shooty said, lol Seriously, the only time I would ever fold AA is if I was chip leader in a qualifier, there were 23 left, and you only need top 18 to win... or similar. That was very unlucky, better luck next time.

		Given the same set of circumstances, i would willingly call the bet again. Hindsight is a wonderful thing and it was only on reflection that doubts arose. It's good to here that i was right and that you would all do the same. Just some bad beats are worse than others.
