Default KK preflop, definitely not a standard hand

Nl1000 at Crypto

Good TAG opens UTG for 40 (we both have ~1000), i reraise to 125 with KK from UTG+1.My image is Taggy, recently joined the table and haven't done anything significant yet.

Very very tight and nitty button (something like 18/6) shoves allin for 700 total, UTG tanks a bit and shoves too....

Is there any chance in the goddamn world one of them doesn't have AA?

Never in my life before I folded KK, but I would pitch it quickly here...

There's some small chance, but it's still a fold.

I am surprised, usually noone in MSNL advocates folding KK preflop.

well in a 3 way pot u only need 33 percent equity to break even, if someone has aces you have 20% equity, which is your worst case scenario. I think thats something to think about. Not saying this is a call but someone has to have AA almost everytime for you to fold here, im not even sure what to do. Sick sick spot

The thing is, i might be up against AA vs AKs, which makes my equity is about 10%.

Also, even if someone has QQ

Even if this is the best possible scenario - AK and QQ, my equity is suprisingly only slightly over 50%.

If i was UTG, i'd cetainly fold AK, having only 40$ invested and being reraised and shoved on by another tight player.

I'll probably fold QQ as well with a player behind.

But let's say, that as turned out - this particular UTG is a bit more loose than i do [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]
