KK fold pre flop - right move or donk play?

The guy who reraised me is a 25/13 solid regular (maybe a 2+2er). I figured it was most likely he has AA, without the right odds to call preflop to try to hit my set (and the chance of getting into trouble going through with my hand on a low flop against AA) i figured folding was the right play. What do you think, right move or donk play...

you cant wait for rawketz all night.....

I'm torn between either pushing the vs his reraise, or merely calling and going ai on all flops. If he's doing an aggressive squeeze with the likes of TT then I think I like the ai on all flops a bit more. Since he's in the sb I would expect him to push all flops.

Dan, how common are the squuezes you talk about. Isn't is quite risky if your trying to squeeze AA in general. Unless hero is willing to gamble aw

How common are raises followed by 3bets followed by another person actually having a hand? Not very, but it happens.

Furthermore its 1-2nl. Even the tags at 1-2nl arent that good. This game is a gong show. Ive had "tight" tags go ai with me preflop in this game with TT through QQ. I of course have KK or better and they get stacked for their terrible plays.

Depends how you are playing at the time.

Big LAG = pooooshhh

Nit = maybe you can find a fold against certain players.

You are not even deep also.

I pooooooshhhhhhhhh

these kind of posts would have more credibility if in the ones where OP called they were ahead. because so many are bad beat posts people don't take these seriously.

I would call and push if he checks and push if he bets.
