QED.

LOL...final tally...

1. Super sat - this makes sense, 1st place means nothing.
2. MTT with steep payout - if it's life changing money, I fold.
3. Glock - definite fold.
4 OP - quit playing poker.

say you are study your HH.
you learn that you recieve 13 AA so far, and they all hold up.
now, AA #14 just arrive
there are some crazy preflop action to you. say 4 player went all-in already.
knowning your AA is 13-0 and variance is gonna catchup to you soon or later.
do you push that AA #14?
Does this change the math? chance of AA holdup 14time weight anything in your decision making?

I'm not going to slam you because your posts on this board seem to genuinely indicate you are thinking about poker to improve your game. I'm just going to post this link Gambler's fallacy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Please give it a read.
