    I probably fold to be honest even though it's horrible. Even if you're not against KK/AA, you're almost certainly gonna be flipping against one of them and maybe dodging a set from an underpair from the other guy.

    You've still got 40 BBs and I wouldn't wanna put my tourney life on the line for what's likely to be a flip at best.

    I had same thing with QQ, I did call and ended up facing JJ 88, it held up but playing in the Sky poker tour I saw AA JJ 1010 and jacks won, it all goes on the hand and luck

    I folded was vs JJ and AK , AK would have got there but i would have won the sidepot

    very unlike me to fold in this spot just felt i was behind to KK/AA

    Good fold, as you said in your opening post - "reshove to my right has not got out of line. only played a few pots which i have got him to fold a couple times

    You have to give the guy credit for a hand but more importantly...you have the measure of him and will probably out play him as is stated in the bolded part. No need to gamble v a guy you can outplay.
