This has happened a few times and I think it's an worthwhile discussion. Here's the situation:

100NL, full stacks or slightly larger. I'm UTG or UTG+1 and I open 4x with KK. A TAGG in LP 3bets me and I decide to flat rather than 4bet (I assume I should usually 4bet here?). Flop comes, say, J99. I checkraise, and he shoves all-in. Now here I'm getting about 3:1 to call and I have a decent hand. But is this a call? QQ knows it's getting no value because I'm folding a bluff and owning him with AA/KK. JJ and AA beat me. I obviously beat bluffs, but is that enough of a reason to call? (My line of thought here gives QQ some FE but whatever).

At 50NL I saw this scenario about 10 times and every time, I called with my KK and he flipped AA or a set.

What do you guys think?

 I prefer flatting preflop IP. 4 betting oop.

Girlfriend: Are you on the forums doing the werewolves again?

Girlfriend: Soo... you forgot to run that errand, but you had time to werewolf? Wtf?

If you flat the three bet, and checkraise a cbet from villain.... You are definitely pot stuck and going with the hand if you are 150 bb's or less. AAARRRRR IIIINNNN
