i know im not the only one this happens too, you playing along in a tourny or cash game waiting for nice hands to advance and boom KK , initially im excited like anyone would be so i bump the pot get 2 callers and i get this crap feeling cause i knowwwww whats coming ... a damn A on the flop!! and it seems like its everytime!! so what do i do? just limp with kings ? try to save money cause i know kings are ace magnets?. its just so frustrating losing to some donk who called a big raise with a 6 off suit and gets an ace.
am i the only one who believes that kings are ace magnets??

Hi, KK is a brill hand as you know exactly where you are with it... Raise pre flop but raise x3 / x4 to get alll the A6o out of the pot. By raising you'll only keep primium hands like AA AK AQs (you know) so if a A comes on the flop you know you are prob beat and you can easy fold it. Not raising or min raising causes you issues as you allow inferior hands in to the pot. Raise KK as you would AA thats what io do anyway.
