AA preflop

all-in

I don't mind an all-in here. In my live games, if anyone re-raises that big preflop (14 BB or so), and I push on top of them, they're probably going to call regardless of the fact that they know i'm tight.

Someone holding KK still has hopes that others have QQ, AKs, etc....

A push will probably get more action from JJ to KK than a raise to 70 or 80 just because it is such an overbet that it looks like you really don't want them to call. So, they might be more inclided to think you have AK and are trying to push them off their JJ, QQ, or KK than that you really have the aces.

It wouldn't surprise me at all if the re-raiser says something like, "Ok, it's coin flip time" then calls your all-in with QQ.

If you push, then I think you get at least one call from the re-raiser, and maybe even two calls here if you push preflop.
