Default Be careful what you ask for

Here's the situation. Sunday night Poker HO $5 buyin on UB. Early in tourney blinds just 20-40. Seat6 Shirtoffback has been raising way too much, way too often, to always have the goods so I can't wait for a big hand to snap off one of his bluff's. I get KK in mid posistion. Shirtoffback is UTG and raises to $250 - YES! - I am going to clean up. Oh crap! Kardmania to my right in UTG2 goes allin. Now I respect Karmania's game so I know I am up against a good hand but I have KK! So I have to call the allin right? and I'm still feeling pretty good about KK in this spot since Kardmania surely also has noted how often shirtoffback has been raising and also just wants him heads up with any good hand so yea I talk myself into allin so lets go! Then oh crap! a player behind me goes allin and shirtoffback folds and its just me and Kardmania and a third unknown party crasher - not what I had expected at all! Now Im starting to get that why did I get myself into this predicament feeling again and well you can follow what happens next below...(it is such a cruel game)...

Follow-up...I learned my lesson calling allin with KK and instead below I hold the AA with a much better result - I got what I asked for this time - and two bounties to boot!
