Well its PL so I dont think we can push over his raise to 4.

I dont mind your play and there is no way Im folding KK PF for only 50 BBs especially without reads [which Im assuming since you didnt post any].

Villain has just over half a buyin here. Once he 4 bets it, it's only $16 more to call so you have to as he could well have AK/JJ+ here. If he has more left behind when he pushes, then a fold could be good.

I have never folded KK preflop against an unknown with <100BBs stack yet. I'm pretty certain that I've seen QQ- more times than I've seen AA.

Easy call. So what if he had aces. Never fold kk preflop without deepdeep deep stacks. Its only a buy in and youre ahead of his range.
