Stunk of aces clearly but I still called hoping a set would give me his stack.
Thoughts?

I know some pretty massive massive nits on the cash tables but there isn't a single player on the site where I assume a 3bet = AA and there's no way it can be any other hand.
All he's done is 3bet which I assume could be TT+, AQ+ even from tight opponents and then half potted the flop. You 100% have to call the flop.
This has to be a level, and you just timed out.
He hadn't been getting all funky with TT/AQ etc. so far.
Is he 3betting QQ and AK too? If he is, then will he fold both QQ and AK to a 4bet or would he flat call and see a flop?
You're worried about him having AA yet you're hand is massively underepped/disguised by not 4betting pre, plus we have position. As played we have to call that flop bet and at least see what he does on the turn. This doesn't mean that we have to stack off if we are convinced he isn't barrelling with anything less than aces or 3 queens. Just way too tight to fold on this street IMO.
Sorry mate but its a simple 4 bet and get it in pre mate. The only way I am calling pre is to trap him.
If he has AA then its pretty cold. If you have hard evidence that he only 3 bets with AA and KK then maybe it is a fold but it has to be SOME SERIOUS read.
Just 4 bet him pre.
GL matey.
calling KK preflop to set mine lol
if you are going to call his bet pre it should be to slow play KK.
you said that he has stuck it back which I think means first time he reraised. could that be maybe down to him not getting anything decent.
AQ AK and 1010-AA I would thing will all be part of his range.
if he is going to just call KK QQ JJ 1010 AK and AQ then that other guy surely would do it with AA too.
I agree with all the above. We have the second best starting hand, it's hard to ever put our opponents on aces.
He could well have Aces here, but overall most of the time he does not.
Take it this is a master cash table? If you are worried about losing 170 plus bigs, not the best idea to be playing on the m/cash tables. If you are worried about Aces just call down then you will know what he had pre.
In saying that, it's one hand and hopefully this thread has given you some food for thought.
It's easy if we have kings busted by aces all in pre to think this happens all the time, but is actually really unusual.
Good luck
I dont play cash myself atm but without looking atother comments, why does this stink of aces as you've only limped. Cash players tend to widen their range of hands don't they? Why haven't you at least 4 bet pre? Maybe there is some underlying strategy but surely you want to inflate the pot don't you?
OK.
Thanks for replies everyone, much appreciated.
Turns out, I didn't realise that getting it in with KK regardless, is the law!! ;O))
FWIW, I'm not in the habit of folding KK but in this instance I still think he had AA!
