Re: KK vs. a Chip Leader
I'd push.
He's ahead of you only if he's got 99, TT, 33 or 9T. And his bet feels too aggressive to be a set. His bet is perfectly consistent with AT, A9, any two diamonds, QJ, JT, a middle PP, 87, etc.
In almost all these cases, you're well ahead -- but various scare cards lie ahead, and you've got no idea what to be worried about. Push and you either take down the pot or play it out as the strong favorite with a chance to double up. I like that a lot more than feeling hogtied on the turn if you see the 5d, Js, etc., etc., etc.
