i'm not folding ..you need to accumulate chips early and fast in big tournaments ..blinds get so high that your gonna get eaten by the blinds

Do you really expect somebody to tell you you should fold?

Hmm, you need about 38% equity and you have about 63% equity...to call or not to call

Looks pretty standard, I'm guessing you ran into AA here but this is never a fold, especially at this stage in a $5 stars tournament. Register for the next one starting in 10 seconds.

I did, in a satelite that took the top 33 and I was 11th in chips with 39 left, LOL! Only time I've ever folded KK 1 on 1, heck I woulda folded AA in that spot. Sorry, I'm just being stupid, don't second guess your KK here even though you obviously were coolered by AA, happens to all of us.

do you really need reinforcement to get it all in preflop with KK. Would you fold AK here? probably not, so why would you fold KK
