Default Re: kk foldable pre-flop?

If you under the gun against 9 opponents and you hold KK, you will be against AA aprox 4.3% of the time or 1 in 23 times.
If you "know" you are up against aces, you should check your pot odds before you call in an all in.
But since you cant "know" you are up against aces, guess at his possible holdings, calculate the probability of aces, then play accordingly.
Remember, KK will still win 18% of the time.

Default Re: kk foldable pre-flop?

i have had this happen many times too. i now as a default whenever a preflop is 3 bet, even if i have aces i just call and see the flop. if it gets this far preflop u r heads up as u want to be, with a nice pot. see a flop and make your decisions from there, that way u can sometimes avoid getting your hand in bad or avoid a bad beat.
