Default Better Poker In Less Than 30 Seconds (Part 1)

Hey all,

This situation crossed my mind on my way to work this morning, and after thinking about it for a couple of minutes, I think that it might have more of a practical application than it first struck me as having. So, I'm going to make two posts; the first where I lay out the situation and get peoples' reactions, the second where I tweak it a little and show the practical application.

And to preempt some of the comments: Yes, I'm a huge dork who thinks about things like EV calculations while walking to work.

Anyway, you must decide what Hero's action should be in this hypothetical situation. But, you MUST decide within 30 seconds. So, if you think for more than 30 seconds, don't bother replying. Also, DON'T put your answer in the title to your post so that others can see. And, if you want to share the logic that you used in your 30 seconds (and I would encourage people to do that), write another post in which you reply to your initial one-word 'gut reaction' post.

Here is the situation...

UTG moves all-in. He would only do this with AA/KK/AK. Folded to Hero in the BB. Hero has KK. Each player has 100 BB stacks. Do you call or fold?

30 seconds.

Starting.

Now!
