Default what do you do here?

blinds are 30/60 down to 7 handed.
I'm utg with KK, I raise to 350 pf. The button calls and the BB calls

The flop comes Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

BB checks, I raise 600 the button pushes. BB folds. It's 1130 to me and I have 2490. Can I fold in this spot? The player has been in a few pots and only showed 1 hand (AA after he got short stacked and he pushed when someone raised pf)

turbo or normal, what was the buy-in?
Other stacks?
You can use one of these
Hand History Converter
30/60 why raise to 350?
Given it sounds like a donkfest shove the flop, as played just shove...

hand history converter says URL Not Found

Normal, $5.50
I raised to 350 to try and protect my hand against people calling with hands like A2 but try and get a call from or 2 opponents(much less and the players at the table would have called with just about any ace) Is this a bad play?

you can't fold in this spot you get paid off all day by AQ, KQ etc and only behind 22, 33 or QQ.

You want people calling your raises with A2, DUCY?

You do realize that KK is a favorite over A2, right? If people call with any ace, then you will just have to let the hand go most of the time when an ace flops, and that is even easier to do when you make a standard raise of 3-4 BB's instead of 5-6 BB's. That being said, you got an excellent flop for KK, so why would you want to fold? What kind of flop were you hoping for??

You absolutely must not fold this hand. He could be making this play with AQ more often then QQ or AA.

Yea... That you guys are saying this stuff I feel kinda stupid for posting the hand. But give me a break, it doesn't say newbie under my name for no reason I read the thing about the raise on some article. I'll have to find but I remember it saying something along the lines of you dont wanna be sorry when an ace flops when you could have got the weak ace hands to fold. Sorry for posting the hand. (btw I called, he showed AQ and caught an ace on the river)
