Default Re: My pocket KKs are losing

[ QUOTE ]
Like everything in poker, "it depends".

How many opponents, board texture, how loose are they, how aggressive are they, etc.

The fewer opponents you have, and the looser they are, the more inclined you should be to want to go to showdown.

Another thing that I find very important is whether they had already limped before you raised your pocket pair or if they cold called to your left.
An A on board in the latter situation is way more scary than versus a limper on my right hand side.
