Ok, I know that KK is pretty much the nuts preflop but how often do people see villian doing this with cards other than KK+ on this limit. Villian is unknown, when he raised I was expecting AA but couldn't fold. Should I even consider folding KK here on this limit or am I just biased because of the result.

snap all in for me.
it´s KK for 25BB effectively... he could easily be doing this with a lot of worse hands. of course it looks suspicious that he isn´t pushing but maybe he knows that he is commited anyway and thinks that a raise looks stronger?
i´ve seen people doing this at the 60s with any pocket and A9s etc.


results oriented dude. you will run into AA once in a while but folding KK pre on any limit vs unknown is highly -EV imo

they turn up with random junk sooo often.. just get it in, nh


Limp/Reraise to less than full stack, looks very fishy. I say trust your read/instinct in these, and feel less unhappy.

Agreed. Folding KK pre in a SnG (other than the bubble) is a clear mistake without a cast-iron read, imo.
