should KK be played less agressive in cash games?

    yeah for sure, i would have just flat called preflop and then once the ace hit you could have just check folded and got away from the hand. also, if the flop came all unders u should also still be able to get away from it if your opponent bets because he probably has aces, online poker is just set up that way, kk vs aa to build the rake to make the sites more money, you need to adjust to it.

    I'd say he made a pretty hideous preflop call of 1/3rd his chips there, but I think you played it well and just got rather unlucky. If you're getting preflop calls like that, it definitely should be played aggressively.

    There is a reason outtapocket is shortbuying... he got 1/3 of his stack in preflop as a 4 to 1 dog so no matter what happens on that specific hand u make money with this play...
