I had KK in early position with a stack about 10BB
I raised 3BB and only one player called (SB, with 30BB stack).
Flop was something like: 2d 6h 9c
He check and I went allin...
He called again with KQ. I was really happy to see those cards!!!
Turn: T
River: J

An unfortunate outcome. Next time, push all-in preflop and put the pressure on your opponent. It's a shame that people can play so bad. The guy risks 1/3 of his stack to knock you out with nothing post flop.

Usually I dont push allin, sometimes because I want people calling my bet, sometimes because I dont wanna play lottery.
There was 2 players with about 10 times my stack, and I didn't want one of them just calling with Ax and made the A hit.
I learned my lessons that most of time I pushed all in with kk qq jj I only got small chips or some brave person called with a9 a10 and ended hit ace. that pissed me off so much. couldn't afford it.
Don't forget, if you have a pair in your hand, there's only 2 other cards possible out there to marry with your pair. With 2 non-paired cards, you have 6 possible cards to pair with. The only limiting factor is the number of community cards ... you only have 5 chances with which to either pair both your cards, full house them or straight/flush them. Personally, I'd prefer AA to AK - I've only got 1 A in the deck while they have 1 A and possibly 3 K to aim for, and they'd need to hit at least 2 of them to beat you, assuming flush or straight don't come into the equation!

Yeah, but in this case the other player had one of this cards (my pocket) and another one with lower value and without a hit there, he needed 2 of this lower card, or hit a flush or hit a stright without any str8 draw in flop (like he did).
He needed two hits, turn and river to win and... sight... he was so lucky
