you can't fold KK here.
You are ahead the vast majority of the time.
Push.

And if he has JT, I curse him for playing the most overrated hand in poker.

Of course that is a possibility too, but even if he does have two pair, you have five outs on the turn and (probably) eight on the river, plus backdoor draws to both a straight and a flush. Just as often you'll run into top pair, a wacky draw, or who knows what else.
