laying down the best hand??

edited January 2011 in The Poker Clinic
just another one to get you all going.......

i was playing a 0.02 - 0.04 10/10 cash game the other day. game was the same as any other micro stakes, after a good session with nice profit the fish were nearly all gone and there were a few half decent players joining the table. as the table was tightening up i decided that i was gonna quit wen all of a sudden i look down at KK. (typical) 
I  make a strong raise UTG to 4x BB to which i get just two callers (MID POS and SB) , which is good. both these players are respectable players but over play there hands a bit. the flop comes 3-6-J rainbow, i know wot your thinking- wot a dream flop for a pair of KINGS.  but for some reason i put THE middle man on pocket JJ PRE FLOP. 
the SB leads out a pot size bet(26p) to which i re raise to x3 (60p) the middle man then re-raises all in to which SB calls. I dont know how i done it maybe it was because it was my last hand of the session and i didnt want to risk my profits for the session i eventually folded my COWBOYS. 
SB showed A-Jo and the middle man showed pocket 33 and took down the pot with his trips. after the turn and river was A and 9. OK now to the point.............
Although i know i made a really good fold to get away from low trips but, do you think it was a weak play as i hear on sky poker channel sometimes talking about weak folds which made me wonder that although it was the RIGHT move this time, how many times i may have folded the best hand. is it losing strategy to make these folds to many times. hope i have explained this okay as it was a tough one to put in words.
