creed,

Are you saying that you can never get away from a KK vs AA situation, or just that the stacks have to be even deeper in relation to the blinds for you to do so?

Sure, I've folded KK before.

But villain seems looser than a lot of the online nits I play.

This becomes a math problem. The fact that villain will push with AKs as well as with AA makes the call of his allin reraise slightly +EV once you make it $1500 to go; you're calling $2000 and you expect to win $2100 or so.

If he pushes occasionally with other stuff (I can't tell from Sklansky's example), then the call is even better.

A lot of this is going to depend on your read of the opponent's range of hands he would push/call a reraise with for sure. But an important factor here as well is whether other good opponents are able to get away with lesser losses holding KK when you are the one with AA. If that is the case, in which case you don't have such times making up for dumping with KK to AA yourself, then it pays to be more cautious with that type of player.
