3 players left in a 1-table sng, I'm the BB. Should I have folded the pocket kings after the button goes all-in and the small blind calls or did I make the correct play?

You made the right call. Honestly I can't see any situation in a three handed game where you are going to fold KK preflop.

Even in a full ring, folding KK would be extremely rare.

Only time I would fold that is if my internet connection was lost.

If you even considered folding KK there the poker god should strike you down.

Thanks for all the replies. My only doubt was that I could (possibly) have secured 2nd place by not playing the hand. I discounted doing this as being too weak given that it was such a premium hand. Looks like I was right this time Smile
