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  |
