Was I correct to call this? Even if I know for a fact that someone had aces, are the pot odds correct to call this? Or should I lay this down as I am probably behind and have plenty of chips?

Yuck. I dont like the action, but in a 1 table sit and go, Im not sure I can ever lay down KK preflop....Its only the BB you are worried about, MP2 wouldnt have pushed aces to start, and CO didnt get his big stack by nut peddling....

Bueller?... Anyone?

I'd instacall there, if he has aces just bust out with honor and fire up another. Me != good enough to lay down KK preflop.

Don't ever fold KK PF online unless it would also be correct to fold AA. EVER.

Bad blanket statement... maybe true for sngs.

I think you gotta call too. You can obviously put that second pusher on a pretty good hand, but there is no way to put him on AA specifically. He could easily have QQ or AK or worse. You'd be surprised what people push with at Party.
