Default Simple KK preflop.

Party $1/$2, 10-handed. Villain in this hand has been at the table for a few orbits and hasn't done anything remarkable. I haven't either, really. I've got $220, villain covers.

I've got KK UTG+1, UTG folds and I raise to $7. Villain on my immediate left reraises to $60. I . . .

He wouldn't raise to $60. You wouldn't raise to $60. But there are plenty of idiots who WOULD make this move with Aces. [I've seen similar craziness enough times on the $50 buy-in tables to look out for it.]

This is not to say I would instantly fold either.

82.4% of the time this is AA. If I had it, I wouldn't bet 60, but I like to think of myself as not-a-fish. Plus, it was posted here, so it's probably AA.

I'd type "Nice Aces push monkey here's my $7".

There's a site (can't remember the name atm) advocating pushing all-in pre-flop with aces. Every. Time. No matter the betting, position. etc...

no one advocates calling the rr and playing some poker?

i think this is the superior play in this situation. if u push he most likely only calls with AA. if u call u may out flop him or get yourself in a situation where u get more value out of hands u beat.

Call. Play poker on flop.

Be prepared to go broke, as well, when undercards flop. I'd recommend a check-raise all-in on most flops.
