This is probably the hardest fold ever but it's a must. Just reading the action and saying "fold that dog" is A LOT easier than tossing those kowboys. From the info you gave I take it you were in the blinds, which was a great place to be. All the pre-flop action is screaming at least one A, if it hits your history in the tournament.

I know it's hard but fold, you may have folded a winner, but you gain valuable information from the hand and don't lose any portion of your stack.

Always remember, Winning chips is a tournament is nothing compared to LOSING chips in a tournement. You're broke-You're done.

Thx, in the second KK hand (the one i posted) i was UTG. I called the BB with the intention of rereaising a bet that 4 sure was coming based on the action at the table. The rereaise by the guy who was holding AA is definitely the sign that I should fold my KK considering he had the largest stack on the table and we were pretty deep into the tournament but not yet in the money.
