    How many here have ever folded QQ or KK preflop? What was the situation?

    many times (AA too). It depends on the situation, the opps and how they're playing and the tournament type. These (and AA) can be easy folds on for example, satellite bubbles.

    Biggest hand I folded preflop was QQ so far and people are shocked when I do it. I almost folded KK twice preflop I still won when I called. The most recent one was a year ago I was in the hand about 4 from under the gun. UTG raises about 6500- blinds are 1000-2000, get one caller so with KK I raise about 18,500. The button who is a good player re-raise about 35k. The original raiser who is also a very good player, in fact for our room this might as well been a final table, anyways so he ends up folding. It gets back to me and now I have to think what to do here. I know most word snap call or go all in, I had a significant amount of chips, at the same time if I lost I'm out of the tourney. So right then it took about 3 minutes to think am I folding or going all in its either QQ or AA. We both know each other well so he either has it or he doesnt. I end up going all-in he calls but it was not even a snap call which is weird. I end up winning with runner runner straight which cripples him. What makes it worst is that 4 hands later I take him out with a set of tens.
