0.25/0.50 strange spot thoughts please.

Is folding this bad, dont use a HUD so dont have stats but id descibe the big stack as being pretty aggro. Really wasnt sure what to do.

Problem is i tried a HUD one time n felt i was playing worse with it. Probably wasnt utilizing the info it gives correctly. Any way back to the hand, is it that simple? just call and chalk it up as a cooler if he has aa. Im not a fan of folding kk pre but if there is ever a time to do it this has to come close?

This pre flop action is irregular imo which is why i called it a strange spot. I called Fwiw but far from snapped.

[GlasgowBandit]

he can show me aces and I am still calling. 

I think your probs up against 99/TT/JJ/AQ/AK

[davids2s]

Thanks for the input guys. Didnt think it was as straightforward as this but i made the right play so im happy. I mainly play stts and mtts but trying to play more cash so needed to hear some opinions.

Fold

can only be AA

only pab knows how to fold KK preflop. For mere mortals this is a fistpump chairspin.

Brag : Just fist pumped and chair spun
Beat : Complication with headphone cable, fell off chair
Variance : I now use a little low key elbow dance for such occasions instead.

[Jamier-Host]

Extending this discussion slightly (apologies if it has been covered before), how many BBs would it have to be before considering folding the KK to a 5-bet shove?

Obviously depends on opponent, but I seem to remember the blogger SmartPoker(??) trying to put a figure on this at some point.
