KK under pressure

10/20 nl, effective stack maybe 3000... i have KK.

AZK who is running hot as balls makes it 100 in CO after one limper, i make it 325 from BB he calls. flop a bunch of crap 9 high two tone, i bet 450 he insta pushes for 2100 more... i mean... insta. pushes.

hero who is running cold as eskimo balls cries and ?

you know it's him, so he also knows it's you, right? do you play together often, is there a history of you two trying to "outplay" each other, gunning for each other, that kind of thing? at first glance it does look like he trapped you with AA, but when i looked at it again, i had some doubt: if he's laying a trap, why not smoothcall again on the flop? then when you fire into him on the turn you'd be pot-committed and would be forced to call a raise all-in at that point. his flop instapush leaves you some slight wiggle room to get off the hook if indeed he's got the aces.

Ugly situation. Are you reraising him here with Queens? What's he think you're reraising with? The big 3? He doesn't seem worried about you having Kings or Queens here.

No one think he could have AKs with the draw? Could help to explain the instapush too.

Do either of your Ks match the flush draw out? If so, I would likely dump, and think he trapped w AA (unless you feel a runner runner coming). I think unless you have been gunning back at him regularly, I would fold. If your Ks do not match the flush draw out, I would likely call. I don't think he would call a pot sized RR PF with a SC, without stacks deep enough (although with him running white hot, it would be a bit more likely, but I still doubt it). So I don't think he is going to try and move you off your big pair with QQ/JJ.
