Re: Misplayed KK Push?
[ QUOTE ]
Is limping w/ AA or KK absolutely wrong, or is there something situation dependent here that I'm missing? Do the occasional bigger pots not offset the hands like this one? I appreciate the feedback.

It's not absolutely wrong, but it's wrong most of the time after somebody else has limped. I limp KK preflop sometimes if I'm in an early position and I can expect it to be raised behind me so I can reraise. I will also sometimes limp with AA or KK if it's been folded around to just the blinds and I'm in the BB, but that's also player dependent.
Basically, with AA or KK I want to (1) get more money into the pot, and (2) get it heads up where I'm a huge favorite to win.
