I am. On the other hand applying wind tunnel answers to real life is a specialty of mine. Perhaps there should be greater discussion about this subject in general.

How should you play your hand?

Just call. On the flop, all-in with any board that does not contain an Ace and that is not something equally scary like QJT.

I actually think this answer is pretty easy. Since you have equal decent size stacks you have to fold. If he has AA you will lose your stack, and If he has a smaller pair and flops unders hes going to play it hard like he has AA. I also think if you consider the player to be tight he probably has you tied at worst. Remember KK is a great hand, but it's just one pair. In Limit I pop it to the river unless u hit a bad flop of course, but in NL your better off finding a better spot since the Donks try their hardest to give you their money.

give me a break.
by that reasoning you should fold AA preflop too because its only one pair.
i can't believe how many people are talking about mucking KK like its 55 just because someone raises.
i don't know what type of games you play in, but if your so quick to muck KK preflop to a raise maybe you should take your skirt and training bra and find another game.

I agree...fold? So basically I can re-raise you everytime and unless you have aces, you'll fold. Please come to my game.

It's heads-up...hmmm, so maybe 1/3rd of the time you call. 1/3rd raise big(and yes, you're pot-committed probably) and the other 1/3 raise small...mix it up, be unpredictable. But fold? Come on, lift up your skirt and strap some on.
