Critical Mistake on stars KK vs. AA

I felt like this was a critical error given that I was a solid favorite over these unimaginative players. There is really only one hand this guy could have had. My gut told me to fold but I talked myself out saying, "he could have AK." Anyone think this is a calling spot? If I didn't have this guy covered, I don't make the call. I need a backup.

WOW. That is what I reasoned when I called. Basically, this is a 50 sit n go, players dont have to have anything, but he was playing semi solid and I didnt think he would make that play with QQ or JJ, so it left AA KK or AK, and AK was far less likely
