How do you play KK here?

[billb]

This is from PS $10 18 Person SNG

Here are my thoughts as it was happening:
Button was going to trying to steal blinds he was playing tight thruout tourny till we got ITM then became aggressive.

SB was playing super aggressive thruout tourney. He is were I got most of my chips. He would call 80% of raises then push people out by betting huge.

i would raise to about 2000 here and if called and no ace comes on the flop then decide what to do. calling here preflop is out of the question IMO.

You got 2 options.

Either raise huge to knock out Ace holding hands and get more chips OR and this is what I would do but its a huge gamble.

Just call slow playing KK, its only 3 people and your likely to get raised on the flop, once you do just push.

Second choice is more risky but I would prob take the first and raise it to around 2k.

Thanks for your input. Now don't laugh at me.

billy butter: raises 7300 to 8100 and is all-in
blasto: folds
BigSlickGood: calls 7300
*** FLOP *** [As 7c 8s]
*** TURN *** [As 7c 8s] [8c]
*** RIVER *** [As 7c 8s 8c] [8d]
*** SHOW DOWN ***
BigSlickGood: shows [Ad Jc] (a full house, Eights full of Aces)
billy butter: shows [Kd Kc] (a full house, Eights full of Kings)
BigSlickGood collected 17075 from pot

I knew was ahead in the hand. I did this hoping to get a call. I make this same mistake of being ahead PF and pushing just to end up being outdrawn. I end alot of my SNG's w/this happening. I know its a leak so looking how to correctly play in this situation. Additional input welcome.

You played it right, he had 3 outs on you and hit it, nothingyou can do about that.
