Default Does this play generally mean AA?

Let's say we're both sitting with 100BB. We're on the button with KK and raise to 4BB, villain reraises to 12BB. We 4-bet to about 30 BB and he goes all-in. Does this mean "Put it away?"

What, put it away so we have both hands to fist pump?

At uNL this could be loads of hands. I have seen opponents do this with any pair, any ace, two picture cards. Most of the time with Aces they will try and slowplay it.

Kings are good.

This had happened to me now 20 times with KK, I got the money in good 3 times so far, pretty much means your XXXXed in my experience regardless of the opponent good bad or indifferent.

Yeah, see, to me everyone on here says "Don't fold KK, there are just too many things you beat." But really, I've RAISED all-in with KK and gotten it good, but CALLING over my stack with KK usually runs me into AA.

I really think it's rare to see someone 5-bet anything less than KK or AA, which means I'm usually either tied or way behind. It seems like a folding spot to me.

Or maybe just save the aggro and push 4 bet instead, and they call off with worse hands. "I thought you were making a move" "Yeah so did I, I only have KK, what the $%&! are you calling that for, oh n/m the flop comes QJT anyways gg"

also you don't have to 4 bet always, you can call too and raise his bet on non-A flops, very few players will throw away an overpair on safe boards

In a word:

No. Never, ever, ever.*

*If you have a 500+hand sample size, and the guy runs like 10/5 or under, this might be ok.

Really??!!!

I have never clicked 'call' against someone w 100BB and NOT seen AA.

pf 4betting pretty much always means super premium... 5betting all-in means 'I don't care!'

Do any of you 4/5bet pf w QQ/KK against an unknown with a reasonable stack?
