Reading your opponent's cards and bets is the key to learning to fold.
If the table does not provide a bluff for him, start to be suspicious of the chips he puts on the table!
But still, most of the time your opponent has smaller pair.
PS: sometimes the merit is all of the opponent

recerveau said:In fact it is very difficult to get over it most of the time when this situation occurs. But the secret to KK and AA's stealth is the psychological side, the way your opponent has been playing. So always start a tournament focused on your opponent's reading (from start to finish of the tournament).

PokerNuts01 said:depends what type of game you are playing.. super turbo or turbo... If you have no information about your player and you have 20BB in a fast pace game i don't think you can avoid an all in with top pair
