I chose the *bust* option simply because the circumstances in which I'd ever fold KK preflop are so rare that I'd be afraid I would be more likely look like a weak-tight idiot when the segment aired.

Exactly. If I get busted by a pro on the 4% chance he has aces to my kings, so be it. There is a much better chance you would look like a fool for folding to an inferior hand. I'll play the Kings and hope to draw out if he does have aces.

It doesn't matter who I busted, I'll take the chips, thanks.

I think I'd rather go in with KK vs a superstar's AA and suck out on the river. Better make it against someone with a short fuse, Matusow and Hellmuth come to mind.

Just so I can scream "BOOM, HEADSHOT" as they're whining about it.

Depends on who it is. I would get so much satisfaction from busting Phil Hellmuth that I would choose AA over KK. It would be funny to watch him go on life tilt and call me a donkey who "cant even spell poker"
