Default Re: Should I be folding KK?

I think I'd like to 3 bet the flop. If it gets capped, I'd figure I'm probably up against better than just top pair. Most likely T9 (2 pair) or J8 (straight), or TT, 99, 77 (set). Could be only T8 for top pair with an OESD though. Would probably go into call down mode after the flop was capped on this straight coordinated board with all cards in or near the playing zone. That would have saved you half a big bet if your losing.

Turn card is a scary. Makes a set for someone with top pair. Button raise looks very ominous, but pot is too big for me to want to fold.

River card makes it a little worse, as a KJ now made a straight, but I'd call in this big pot expecting to win at least one in 16 times.
