My first question is why do you have K5 vs KK in the first place?  If he didnt raise pre flop then there really isnt anything you can do about this.  with top two pair you may end up all in anyway.  also from the first example, with 61 people left you still have a very long way to go so to make it to the final table you would have to keep building your stack.  to give you an idea of what kind of stack you need to even make the final table.  multiply the starting stack by the number of entrants and divide by 9.  1500*7500=11,250,000 11,250,000/9 is 1,250,000.  this means that the average stack when you make it to the final table is going to be 1,250,000.  I know it feels like you have come a long way after outlasting over 7400 people but this is when it gets really tough.  when you get to this point you are going to have to take some risks to have  a stack big enough to make the final table.  another word of caution, it is dangerous to slow play.  you should really only do this on dry boards that dont have alot of straight or flush draws, especially if you flop something as vulnerable as a set.  I know it feels strong but something as easy to make as a straight beats it.  so it looks like some one may have a draw you should just bet out. It is better to win a small pot than to lose a big one.
