So I play in lots of MTTs and whenever I get moved around I try and see how the aggression is on the table. The other day I swear I got moved into a table where it was basically a shove fest. Everyone was going in w/ Ax, Kx (x=lower than 8), small rockets (66 and lower). There were times I'd have suited connectors I want to play, only to fold to someone who decides to shove that has a higher chip stack than me. For about 10 minutes I had crappy hole cards finally to get KK in the UTG. I decided to raise 4x the BB only to win the blinds. After that I got crap cards again and every so often there be an agressive raiser or a person who would shove w/ the hands I mentioned above.

My question to the community is how could I have played my pocket Kings differently so that I could have gotten some chips from the aggressors. I do know I probably shouldn't have opened w/ a raise but I figured I'd get many callers. All replies are appreciated!

Do nothing..let him to bet and try to steal a pot.
And then trap him!
