KK preflop

While I believe in never folding KK preflop for less then 150bbs, this hand def questioned my view. Villan is a winning multitabling tag who imo doesnt even three bet light and I really dont think he is making a play here ever.

If we really want to decide whether or not this is one of the rare times to fold KK, I need to know more.

What is your best guess as to how villain perceives you? What is your image?

Im sure he views me as a tag and maybe possibly able to pull off a squeezish play here. Among other things I really dont think that is that important here though. He has a premium hand, he pretty much insta pushed. Also he 3bet an utg opener from utg+1, and i 4bet from the sb. Whether or not I am capable of 4betting light, this is not a spot I would and I think he would be aware of this.

I think the best arguement for calling is simply that with me four betting and him being in position, if he has AA, he can simply call and get it all in on every flop.
