Re: EP - KK First Hand - How would you play?
Lou has mentioned the standard way to play it. This is how I usually play it. A couple of points:
1. At the lower levels of SnG's, with small blinds, people often don't respect raises of 4x bb because they see them as "only" 60 chips. By raising, one thing you are trying to achieve is to get people holding aces to fold. So you may want to consider a bit of a bigger raise due to the mindset in early rounds at PP.
2. The other choice is the go for the limp reraise, a la Super System. This is rarely my choice, but is a good play in an aggressive game. Since you had no read, you may have to go to your past experience to see the likelihood of a raiser before the flop (from what I remember in small games, very likely).
