This is really a question of knowing your opponents. If I'm up against bad players; I'm going to assume more than one player has an ace in his/her hands and shoving seems very favorable to me.

you gotta fold

1) you have no idea what the guy UTG limped with.
2) you have 2 tight players in the pot. and one of the guys is tight-aggressive, so i'm going to assume if he's got AA he would re-raise just like described in the scenario. he wouldn't slow play AA in this spot and he would recognize the wisdom of taking the pot down right there or isolating someone for an all-in. the tight player who put in the initial raise could easily have AA as well.
3) 3 raises and all you have is a pair of kings? wouldn't you want to wait for a better spot to get your money in? what's the point of saying, 'oh well, if someone has AA then what can you do'? why can't you just recognize that there is a distinct possibility that you're in a tough spot and fold the hand? unless you have some crazy read on your opponents, i say you have to, at the very least, respect the 2 tight players and fold KK.

Maybe I am wrong, but I definitely call. I don't push all in because there is way too much I don't know.

On the flop, and the next round of betting there is much information to be gained, and if there is an ace, I check/fold..

If not, I push all in... I don't think I would push all in pre flop in a cash game in this situation. No Ace on flop, I will and let a pocket aces beat me. But I don't want an ace to flop and AK/AQ/AJ beat me.

Fold and lose my BB unless I have some reads on whether button can 4-bet to 50BB with AK with 3 players to act. Button should be raising to $320-340 with AK or folding though. The $500 just does't look like AK cause he's pot comitted, looks more like AA.

I'd never call cause I'm OOP on the flop against what could be 4 players.

Fold.

KK is not valueble when playing against 3 players, ace rag can crack your hand. One on one situation is always best.
