What do you think about folding KK preflop on NL2 in a multiway pot?

PokerStars - $0.02 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players

Hero (MP): 144 BB
CO: 102.5 BB
BTN: 100 BB
SB: 100 BB
BB: 100 BB
UTG: 295.5 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has K♠ K♣

UTG calls 1 BB, Hero raises to 3 BB, fold, BTN raises to 11 BB, SB raises to 26 BB, fold, UTG raises to 50 BB, Hero raises to 144 BB and is all-in, BTN calls 89 BB and is all-in, SB calls 74 BB and is all-in, UTG calls 94 BB

Flop: (489 BB, 4 players) 7♣ 9♥ J♠

Turn: (489 BB, 4 players) J♥

River: (489 BB, 4 players) 8♦

Spoiler

UTG shows K♦ 8♠ (Two Pair, Jacks and Eights)

Main Pot [401 BB]: (Pre 6%, Flop 19%, Turn 10%)
Side Pot#1 [88 BB]: (Pre 7%, Flop 20%, Turn 10%)

Hero shows K♠ K♣ (Two Pair, Kings and Jacks)

Main Pot [401 BB]: (Pre 9%, Flop 5%, Turn 3%)
Side Pot#1 [88 BB]: (Pre 93%, Flop 80%, Turn 90%)

BTN shows A♥ A♣ (Two Pair, Aces and Jacks)

Main Pot [401 BB]: (Pre 69%, Flop 67%, Turn 83%)

SB shows Q♠ Q♣ (Two Pair, Queens and Jacks)

Main Pot [401 BB]: (Pre 16%, Flop 10%, Turn 5%)

Hero wins 87 BB

Than you need good reads and stats to fold KK with a 144bb stack. I doubt I can fold KK here. In this hand someone is even stacking of K8o what makes no sense at all. At least that makes losing this hand a little bit better for you that you won the side pot.

On NL2, never fold KK preflop. If you face off against AA, so be it. Still plenty of people that will go all in with lesser hands.
