Lol u guys are funny. I like the percentages being brought out. Its an entertaining slow roll video you dumbass. today i tried to fb chat to a friend "I have aces!" On a final table. And it showed up in the table chat, I was like fuck, now I have to shove .... Lol but the blinds were high enough that two donks called and I won.

@111JFish Suppose a call and a win here increases your odds of winning 1st prize by, say 30%, while a fold decreases those odds by, say 10%. We don't know because there's no context to this hand. Hypothetically, though, that 15% chance of walking away empty handed doesn't look so good next to that 30% boost in tournament odds. If that was the scenario I was in, I would hesitate.
I highly doubt Lindbach was slow rolling here. He was being smart and thinking before he acted.

@111JFish There are three outcomes to consider: Fold, Call & win (85%), Call & lose (15%). Depending on where this tournament is at, a fold might protect second place while leaving open the possibility of winning first place. A call and win might secure second place with a strong chance of 1st, while a loss would mean no winnings at all.
There's more to poker than "OMG I HAVE ACES I CALL." The equity already in the pot, the value of 1st and 2nd prize: there are many factors in the equation.

@ddpsp ....If you fold AA preflop for any reason against only one player you should be shot. If you're that scared to lose that you won't play an at least 85 percent favorite, you don't need to play poker anyway.

@ddpsp MUCH MUCH BETTER EXPLANATION

@salvadordahli I didn't say that folding was the right move in this spot, I said that this was not necessarily an insta-call. We don't know the context of this hand. Is this early in a tournament? Late? Does he think his opponent has KK? These could be factors in his hesitation. All I'm saying is that Lindbach wasn't necessarily slow rolling here. There are other explanations. He may simply be an extremely conservative player thinking about that 15% chance of early elimination. It has happened!

@ddpsp really- you would have to consider the badbeat???!!! YOU ARE AN IDIOT. whether its a 15 % chance of losing, you do not fold pocket aces preflop against one all in and no other player behind!!! You are a moron!
