Re: Straightforward hand? I thought so...
As to your first point:
You're being too results oriented. The fact that you had KK in this case is immaterial as to whether or not a call is correct.
As to your second point:

Re: Straightforward hand? I thought so...

That might be a discussion onto itself. From my point of view, if you're good enough to lay down TT after the raise, it's a pretty good raise. I'm just surprised that he re-raised me,...

Re: Straightforward hand? I thought so...
I would never let my stack get that short at a cash game, but maybe he has some secret professional strategy of which I'm not aware.
Anyway, was he thinking about his chips as money when he put...

Re: Straightforward hand? I thought so...
I'd agree with you if you turned over your hand and showed it to him before he called. If he has any doubt at all, then the correctness of his fold becomes much murkier.
Isn't there a chance...

Re: Straightforward hand? I thought so...
So he raised half his stack preflop with TT and then folded when you raised him for the rest? Sounds like a real pro to me . . .
I have to say I don't believe he folded TT there. If he did,...

Re: Stealing a min-raised pot
I think 2X pot is a little much, but maybe raising to ~70-80 would prevent the domino calling effect that you apparently got. Of course you'd need to do that with your premium hands too.
