Any way I can find a fold here?
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (5 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx
MP ($8.35)
Button ($39.20)
SB ($32.60)
BB ($45.35)
Hero ($69.50)
Preflop: Hero is UTG with K , K .
Hero raises to $2, 2 folds, SB calls $1.75, BB raises to $45.35, Hero?

Any reads at all on opp? Pokertracker #'s? Barring any reads, I take the chance that it's not one of those 24 times he's holding AA while I hold KK and call.

Passive guy, limped into every pot and hardly ever raised.

That statistic seems very irrelevant unless you see someone go all-in like this every single time you have KK.

I call here. He'd value raise with AA here I think. Smells like a pair of Jacks.

How could this SMELL like Jacks? AA/KK/QQ/AK do this all the time - so do many other hands. Call and reload if beat. When is Fnord going to get that sticky up?

Fnord can put up a sticky if he wants to, but the fact is there are plenty of players who are bad enough to play AA in a manner that makes it completely obvious that they have AA, because they wouldn't play any other hands that way. I think it's possible to find a fold against such a player.
I didn't think I had enough info on this guy to fold, but I would say that this is basically never JJ unless it's an idiot who likes to go all-in all the time.

Call, say thanks, and reload just in case you lose.
I hate it when I have like 2 bucks on the next hand and get dealt AA...

If you think he's got AA, go ahead and dump it while it's cheap. Would he play AK like this?
I really don't think it matters what you do all that much.
