Default OK seriously, what besides AA could he have?

I know i'm just feeling pissed...but...

Party $million, and I've been red-hot and more than doubled early to 3100. Now I get KK UTG and make it 90 to go (blinds 15/30) 2 callers and now BB makes it 400. Right away I think AA. He has 1800 chips. I really hate calling because itwill probably draw at least one of the others in. But in his spot AA is the only hand I make that raise with. Maybe KK, but not even QQ.

He doesn't have enough chips to give me correct odds to try and hit my set. I finally decide that I can't fold, and if I call and undercards come, I'm going to be in the sameboat, so I push.And of course he has the aces.

I still haven't ever laid dowm KK pre-flop, but if ever there was a casefor doingit, this wouldseem to be it. I give up 90 chips and move on. No one knows what I laid down so what's the big deal. Ifhe had pushed it's an easy call, but that size raise says AA to me 90% of the time.
