KK vs 75s is the "big pair against live cards" spot: KK wins 78.5%, 75s wins 21.1%, and 0.4% of boards chop. 75s is the kind of hand that hates folding — its flush and straight draws mean it gets there roughly 21.1% of the time, far more often than a dominated big-card hand could.
Here's the intuition behind 78.7% to 21.3%: KK wins roughly 4 of every 5 times the chips go in, but the underdog cashing 21.3% of the time is exactly why you can't slow-play and let it draw for free.
KK should play this fast and deny equity: every free card helps 75s more than it helps you. If you're the one with the suited connectors, lean on implied odds and fold equity rather than the raw 21.1% — the hand's value is in the pots you take away postflop, not in flipping all-in preflop.
