Will you ever fold AA or KK facing all in?

i faced similar situation. i was tempted to go all in with QQ, but i folded. KK won against AA & AK. Many times i have seen AA lost to mediocre hands.

My worst defeat with AA is against 8 J offsuit.
i got shocked. i never expected someone goes all in with that hand.
actually last freeroll I had only 9,5 bb and guy with huge stack made a rase I had J6 suited and because my stack was so short and big blind was coming to me I was like "Please, fold and let me just take this 4bb" so I go all in but he snap call with AA and I got straight Q10987 board. That was amazing. But then I had AQ and go all in for 17bb and same guy calls with A10 and gots his chips back because he hitted two pair. Funny poker)))

Yes, if, only if:

For me to fold to an AA or KK, it would have to be on the river with a flop, a one-colour board or else a straight draw to be able to fold.

AA is for us to win in the long term, but nowadays we don't win anymore

Today I faced a player who is going all frequently, not allowing anyone to play. Then I got AA.

This is poker. I got irritated, so I made a mistake.

I wouldn't fold because you have the two best hands you could possibly get.
