Default Re: Fold KK on the flop after aggression

ugh, me neither, although I'm probably not too excited about calling.

A good player doesn't play a set this way.
A bad player might play a set this way, but they also would play AQ and possibly other assorted junk this way as well.

That makes this a call in my book.

In my experience "bad" players almost exclusively slowplay sets. "Good" players at least get some action going on the flop to make the bets bigger on later streets.

I had a note on a player that he can stack off w/ TPWK. I played a set nearly EXACTLY this way and got it all in on the flop. If villain thinks that OP overvalues TP/Overpair, I can see him playing this way.

Bad players come in all varieties. Some slowplay their sets to death, some don't get value off of their sets when they hit because they do stuff like above.

Also, I don't understand your second point. There are always going to be exceptional circumstances like the one that you outline, but do you disagree that a good player in most cases will not play a set like this?
