no doubt with these idiots, but with all the pre flop action it was still a great fold on the flop.

and just got eliminated in 90th place after more pokerstars rigging.

I can see folding the first one, because everytime I have KK with an A on the board, someone has A rag offsoot and obviously they have hit their A.

The second hand I am having trouble figuring out why you would fold a flopped boat, when the ONLY hand that beats you is KK. And you fold to a measly 200 reraise. Maybe that's why my decent cashes have been so few, but I get all my chips in on that flop.

And by the way, folding KK on a flop with an A is not "the greatest fold", I folded KK preflop not once but twice to multiple all ins before me. And the 2 times I have done it, were in CONSECUTIVE hands! Both times my reads were correct, someone had AA each time.

might not be the greatest fold for us people with skill, but for online play it is up there.

my second fold i folded pre flop to 2 reraises, when the flop came down i was even more happy.

Oh I misread it, didn't notice you folded JJ preflop, I thought you folded on the flop.
