Yeah, I don't think I would fold KK here with that board. Any reads before the hand?

It's a tough one. The fact that there are two all-ins before you indicates that at least one has a better hand, unless they're both complete donks. Having said that, I wouldn't have been too worried about UTG+1 - you're only really concerned about 77 and that's still a long shot. The SB's flat call could well suggest a pp (even if he wasn't getting great odds) which hit the set. Or an any pp 88-JJ. So goes down to reads. If SB is known as very good then fold. But without a read I think you've got to call. You can bust two players and even if you lose you've got them covered.

Also probably best not to post results until people have commented - can bias opinions when result is known.

I would rarely fold there no way unless you had a read on one of the players.

tbh u are beat so often here, this is the type of hand is where u must be disciplined (I bet you called thinking u were beat, right?)

I mean the way the action thas went there is a good amount of pairs ion their ranges, as you guys are playing fairly deep.

I mean how often does 88-QQ show up here twice?
Draws a pretty non existant in this hand which is more argument for a fold.

Vs 1 player I am probably pretty happy to get it in here, but I really do think this is a pretty easy fold. Try not to see your hand as "I HAVE KINGS" and think I have one pair and there is a lot of action in front of me, which suggests one pair is way behind.

Raise more pre-flop, and bet way more on the flop.

As played, you can fold. You have one pair in a muti-way allin pot, and one of the players checks, and calls behind with loads of action, unless he is a total donk he always has a monster.
