Default Re: Some words on AA and big pairs

[ QUOTE ]

For example: You raise with QQ, get called and the flop comes K98 and the small blind leads into you. You fear he has a king but arent sure. If you raise he might reraise with a king or draw, making you fold too often. The best play is to just call. Now, if you get heads up on the turn, you have to call all the way. And alas, you see a king or maybe the river comes an Ace and he bets and you fold to his busted draw or you call his Aces up.

Why is this the right play? Once we put him on a K at the turn, wouldn't we fold and save 2BB? Calling down does not seem like a good option, especially if he's shown preflop aggression.
