How do you do it?
I'm a regular tournament player and in 4 of the last 6 tournaments I played I got dealt KK while someone else held AA late in the tournament. Each time, I lost a huge portion of my chipstack and ended up being elimated very soon after.
I felt like I always played it right. It has happened to me in 2 different ways.
1) The person with AA limps in. I raise. They call. All low cards on the flop. I raise. They call. I push all-in on the turn, only to find out they have AA.
2) The person with AA raises. I reraise. They push all-in and I always feel like I HAVE to call because in most situations like that, KK is the best hand.
So... What do I do? All suggestions are appreciated because I feel like I would have won a lot more money the last few weeks if that didn't happen. And it sucks because I've seen pros lay down KK preflop.
