Default I folded KK preflop

I figure this forum is the safest place to post this without getting flamed.

Borgata 5/10NL.. I find myself with KK UTG. I decide to make it 60. Folds around to the button who pushes for maybe $750. SB mucks and it gets to BB.. He sits there thinking seeming really puzzled by what's happened. He then pushes over the top for maybe $900.

Now, I have a read on both guys.. I have no doubt that the button just wants to gamboooolll. The BB is a problem however.. I have no doubts that he has the goods. Given my big UTG raise followed by an all in, him pushing over the top leads me to believe he can only have aces.

Well, I did something I have never done before. I folded kings preflop. I was very proud of myself.

And yes.. the guy showed aces. The original pusher had 8s9s. I was dead on with both reads.
