Well typical NL play for me. An hour of good play wasted by stupidity. No reads on the player. Not overly aggressive player. Was this as obvious a fold and it seems?

Call in a flash

This is a very easy call. There is about $12 in the pot and you have $3.65 left. Even if he showed you AA it's almost a call.

But this will often be QQ, AK and you will be ahead.

Don't beat yourself up about hands like this. They happen.

Also try and reload and play with a full stack.

OMG, PLEASE tell me you pushed?? How is folding KK preflop at micros ever an easy fold?

well if you do feel the need to post hands like this, the least you can do is not give away that you lost this hand. Otherwise it's just a whiny bad beat post. Either way, you should be happy to get all your money in preflop with KK.

Hello. He re-raised twice and he wasn't some loose maniac either. At least based on the hour play he wasn't. You don't re-raise twice with crap.

Instacall. Always. Belive me, your opponents will go all in with lots of other hands than AA. Folding here is very bad.

please move this to BBV right now and don't post questions like this on this forum. most posters here (incl. myself) won't be happy reading this silly posts.

read the FAQ and you'll understand why this is a no-no

Hello. How are you.
They say the fourth bet is always aces.
But I suspect "they" never played much at the micros.
Edit: or high stakes for that matter.
