getting away from KK preflop
 

first off I'm new to posting but have been reading for a while and appreciate all the advice and thoughts. There has been a lot of talk about folding KK preflop under the correct conditions in a ring game. I wanted to know if it is ever the right play to fold it early in a 9 person low stakes SNG tourney (specifically first hand)or if you just count it as bad luck if you face AA and move on? Thanks...

maybe i'm dumb or a terrible player, but i'm not folding KK pf at almost any stage of a sng or tournament, if i walk into aces or go out. oh well, at least i'm going with a bang and a good hand

I will basically never ever fold KK preflop online.

Outside of very very deep stack tournaments (like, maybe in the WSOP, blind level 1, and probably not there), just don't.

In an online SNG, don't even let it enter your mind.

Definitely not in the early levels. If you're super short-stacked on the bubble and someone else is all-in, fold KK.
