Hi,
After running into aces 3 times today with KK, plus a lot more times before, it got me thinking... can you lay down KK preflop to a 4-bet?
I'm not talking about midstacks/shortstacks/total fish, there it's an easy push. But imagine this: you're against a more or less tight player, he raises 4bb. you reraise to 12-14BB and he 4-bets to ~40BB. What hands does he do this with? Only KK and AA come to mind. QQ in most cases just calls the 3-bet, same goes for JJ-TT.
So, in which situations do you fold KK preflop?
1) When the original raiser 4-bets (assuming he's relatively tight)
2) When there's been 3 raises before you (OK, unlikely but still ♦)
3) Same as 2, but you're one of the raisers (either open raiser or 3-better). e.g you raise, CO 3-bets, BB 4-bets
4) Never fold KK's preflop!
This is almost worth a poll, don't you think?
