KK vs AA

Until recently I've always believed that if at all possible you should get as many chips in pre flop as you can. Recently though I've been running into aces on a regular basis, at first I thought I was imagining it but after checking my hand histories they confirm that the last 15 times I've had Kings that I've been up against aces on 10 occasions. Also each time Aces have reraised me and I've subsequently put them all in, resulting in me either losing a substantial stack or going out. Each time it's happened it's been fairly late on and in sizable tournaments too, the last occasion in a $70k guaranteed where I was 6th out of 30 players remaining. To add insult to injury the player who crippled me had been playing loose all evening. I'm not intending this thread to be about bad beats, just how most people play this hand, would you for instance ever lay kings down pre flop? Perhaps I'm just having an unlucky run with them and I should continue as before but perhaps it is time to modify my play, though again judging by my hand histories slow playing them isn't working out great for me either.
