well, generally speaking any time its KK vs. AA it's just a cooler. there are exceptions of course, but I think you played the hand well.
Why would you want to flat preflop? and let AJ or worse in there for cheap?
Why would you want to flat the flop bet? what if they are Cbetting with 2 big cards and you give the Ax a free card to beat you?
I think you played it fine...I'm not sure why your goal is to min cash, I don't really agree with that, but let's pretend for a second this was a supersatellite and you're on the bubble which kind of mimics your goal of min cashing.
In that case I think you would A) fold preflop because the only stack that covers you has 3 bet you...yuck BTW, I hate this move or B) flat the raise preflop and then jam on the flop. or C) play it exactly the way you played it.
The only one of those that keeps you alive is A) and I really hate that move for anything but a supersatellite....and even then I'd probably just jam preflop and hope he doesn't have AA......
so back to my original statement, KK vs AA is basically just a cooler...
