Oh boy.

I was close to folding to his 4-bet pre. I am not sure if that's to nitty or not or results orientated. Am quite happy for the A on the flop.

Overall felt like a weird hand, folding KK pre-flop is so nitty... on the other hand his line is pretty sick as well.

How would you guys play this?

What range do you give villain? If KK+, it's a fold, if QQ+, AK it's a shove.
But yeah, again a tough one.
And the pot size bet OTF is super weird... But, I don't see how to call here.

Well for me I jam the KK preflop unless I know opponent is exceptionally tight -- and that would require a lot of hands.
The number of times you run into AA or hitting an A (like this time :coolface: ) are few enough.

In Equilab it looks like this:

       Equity     Win     Tie
MP2    37.40%  35.35%   2.05% { JJ+, AKs, AKo }
BB     62.60%  60.56%   2.05% { KK }

So against a standard 4Bet range of BTN vs BB, KK is a decent choice to shove pre

I would stack off pre-flop as well against a unknown. I don't think the pot bet of villain on flop is to weird with in mind hero has only $9,45 behind, but I would fold flop as well.
