Considering you didn't do the raise you only called it, theres nothing to add. You played it right. You had no choice if you're not calling all in, or shoving, with that many blinds on kk. You're a bad player.

This is not a bad-beat... if you had A-T you called... If you want to play KK you shouldn't play ALL-IN ... you could bet 300 or 400... if he raise you go all in .... if he call you could bet 500 on flop... but no all in with KK pre-flop... he has under 13 blinds ... so in this case shove or fold a bad beat was if he had 2-10 and turn was 2 and river 10 or something like this... if you have KK and i have AA you shove i call you say is a bad-beat ? What are you saying about this hand ? Hero K K All in Utg: A 2 Call Flop: K Q Q Turn: Q River: Q

He means losing with to a A kicker. Yea, losing to a guy that hits runner/runner always feels like

I also have to agree on this one with the mobsters that posted above, this isn't really a bad beat...
As i posted in a previous thread about strong hands this is a classic example where you get KK and many weak player call your bet even with Ax, where x is lower than T most of the times.
I don't know what the donk was doing shoving with A 10 in the first place. That shove is a donk move you see from noobs who have absolutely no clue about poker.
You got the money in with the best hand, and was outdrawn. Thats poker. But make notes on him, find him in a cash game and take the idiot to the cleaners because donks like that are the best way to build your bankroll. You will win against players like that about 70% of the time, so keep playing like that and you will return a profit eventually.
Not a bad beat...It is expected that sometimes KK will lose to Ax hands....but not much....he only have 3 outs for the ace or he can hit trips or quads with his 10 and its hard for him to have the straight because you have 2 kings...to sum it all, he was lucky to hit the ace....

normal hand, you did everything right, plus you only had 12BB so with kk it's a must call, actually it would've been good even if you went all in first one, and considering you only called- you didn't have many choices with this one. just unlucky that you lost. still good play and good luck in the future
