Default Common problem: KK gets donked by an A-high flop

Common problem: You get a premium PP not AA, you raise pre-flop and a bunch of people donk along only to find an A-high flop. Ugh.

SB here is fairly tight for the game (probably TOO tight), 17/7 and I have not seen him get out of line.

Nothing of value on UTG or MP.

Preflop: Heroine is BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG calls, MP calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB completes, <font color="#CC3333">Heroine raises</font>, UTG calls, MP calls, SB calls.

Pre-flop is gay.

Flop: (8 SB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>

Here are my options:

a) Be weak-tight and fold.
b) Call like a bith.
c) Raise, hoping to knock out weak two pair/trips draws (and if I can get an ace to fold that would me wonderful... doubt it, though). You also run the very high risk of scaring a loose/passive weak ace to calling down, which is no g00t.

Pot now: 4.50 BB
