Easy fold preflop with KK ?
 
75 € tourney. Level 5 and blinds at 100/200. Ive had a great rush so far. With the average stack around 6500 im 2nd in chips with 31000. And ofcourse the villain in this hand is the one that covers...

I limp UTG with KK. A shortstack pushes his last 700 from MP. Villain raises 2400 from the BB. Such obvious isolation...? I pop it up to 6000 and Villain makes the fastest instapush ever.

Easy fold ?

No. Why would he do the fastest instapush ever with Aces?

Make the fastest instacall.

You have 150xBB, but given villain's raise looked like an isolation play, and villain could be bullying with big stack, I call.

If you win this hand, you should be able to take one of the top 3 places atleast.

This is begging for a call.

You are villain and have QQ or AK. What would you do as the chip leader with the 2nd largest stack reraising you?

I call so fast I might accidentally hit the fold button.

Easy call. There is no way for you to say that villain unequivocally has AA. He would play QQ and AK the same way.

I am not good enough to fold kings preflop-ever. I would consider it, if my opponent showed me aces, but I would probably call anyway for consistency [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img].

So there were about 60 players left and 15 got the money. ~3k € to the winner.

Why would i want to risk my big stack at this point of the tournament ? Its only freeking level 5 and if id fold id still have a monsterous stack.
And would you really, as the Villain, re-re-raise the only player who can hurt your stack BIG with QQ or AK here ?? I doubt that a lot.

Villain had about 3000 more then me, so i really would hurt him bad if i won the hand...
