Titan No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10/$0.20BB (Titan HH Converter by Kreatief)

MP3 ($3.70)
CO ($18.80)
Button ($19.18) I have no reads on this villain
SB ($13.82)
BB ($4.00)
UTG+1 ($3.90)
UTG+2 ($15.90)
MP1 ($8.90) (Hero)
MP2 ($21.26)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with K♣, K♦
1 folds, Hero raises to 0.8, 3 folds, Button calls $0.80, 2 folds,

Flop: 4♦, 7♥, 8♣ ( $1.9 )
Hero bets $1.60, Button calls $1.60,

Turn: A♣ ( $5.1 )
Hero checks, Button bets $16.78, 1 folds,

Final Pot: $21.63

Results:
Hero has K♣, K♦

How do you think? Is it ok to check/fold on turn? Or maybe I should go broke in this situation???

Checking the turn is rather weak here.
His push might be a bluff, because it's a huge overbet.

Maybe you should have lowered your flopbet to 2/3pot.
Then the pot on the turn wouldn't be so big, so you can consider making another 2/3pot bet.

But once again, I'm not sure here, because Ax is a big part of Villains range.
But the fact the shoves the turn surprises me, I can't imagine he would do that when he holds the best hand...

I maybe would have done the same on the turn as you, but I'm not sure if it's the best thing...

I think you did well. Would've played that hand the same.

With a double stack you don't need to invest all your money when the overcards are on the board. Tough luck, but played well.
