Final two tables of online $5k guaranteed $20 buy-in tournament. 10 minute levels. 10k chips. About 300 entries. (Ignition).

I have a medium stack of about $160k in late position (hijack). Under the gun goes all in for $90k. Just to my right a player with about $150k smooth calls leaving $60k behind! I have pocket KK's. Would anyone fold here? I haven't put a chip in the pot yet. The smooth call seems like it is screaming Aces.

I guess I just can't be sure enough about any reads to not jam KK, especially online. But it seems to me if there ever were a situation to fold it pre-flop, this may have been it. Looking back on it, it still seems like a very marginal situation at best. And I probably could have coasted into 8-9 place at least.

Believe it or not, he did have AA and the other guy had the other two Kings! lmao.

Sorry I can't figure out how to copy the hand history from ignition. I tried to link to an image of it I put on just paste it, but the forum didn't like that either.

You can reshove something like TT+/AQ+, KK is never close to a fold with a 20bbs stack, that's the top of our range.

Again, I'm not folding this under any circumstances in the tournament you're talking about. I'd need it to be a satellite, cash game or live MTT where I know the villain is the nittiest nit in nitsville
