It's so frustrating and discouraging! I usually play like i had a big Ace and continue to fire.

sometimes i go all in with KK when there is an A on the board, it all depends on how i feel on that moment...and i fold it too

Of course, just because an Ace hits doesn't mean your opponent has an Ace.

Each time differently, depending on the position, opponents, stack

Hi! First of all, the ace falls on the flop once out of six! And secondly, this does not mean that the opponent necessarily has an ace!

It all depends on the situation.
Well, the odds of winning are low.

Pocket Cowboys…

So fun to wake up with KK… preflop… your heart skips a beat. And of course an A hits the board… happens a lot… I think you play the hand like you hit the A. Why not?

I would continue to play like i had the ace and bet, hoping that if somebody does have an ace, their bet would give it away, ie they go over the top of your bet.

I think the action has to slow down, if opponent has an ace, your bet won't make him fold, and villain with worse hand will be scared of an ace, either way, betting has little benefit to your pocket kings.

tough one, slowing down the action gets you no new information,but a bet might. the size of the bet is key and will, of course, differ in each situation. I find players tend to telegraph their having an ace with over-bets although the only info i can go off are hands that were called. Im sure ive been bluffed a million times.

At times like this, it's important for me to be patient and build on the actions of my opponents as a whole, rather than on a specific board structure.
