Reraise the flop, there is no point giving free cards

Many draws got there. (I mean A♦:X:diamond:.) Board is otherwise dry. I think we can live to see another hand dealt out.

Free cards? He check-raised, so if he is drawing, he already played double the regular fee for drawing. Besides, ranges are composed of other stuff as well. Like nuts and bluffs. None of these categories is wise to raise for obvious reasons.

Yeah he check-raised. If you are talking about ranges depending on our guy 3bet % BTN shouldnt have 44/22 so he either has JJ or a bluff. Thats 3 combos, theres a J on the flop so he couldnt have only 50% of the 6 original combos, he may be raising connectors suited, AJ, a complete bluff, these guys are crazy. Why would you let the situation develop for the worst, your KK isnt going to get any better. What would you do if another diamons fall on the turn? If he wants to raise his projects just go allin when you have your strongest equity

Well, if he doesn't have 44/22, he sure enough doesn't have suited connectors. Why would you want to raise out complete bluffs? Please explain. Why would you want to raise out KJ?

No, let him come. We have a nice bluff catcher. Let him bluff that part of his range. You seem to know very little about realizing equity. It is not like stumbling over yourself going all in when you think you have better equity than him.

Mmmm i just tried to kept it simple, with going allin i dont mean see a 0,28 raise and move the bar to allin. I'd play KK as a value hand and that means ill reraise his raise on the flop or depending on his stats i will call and raise on the turn or bet on the turn in case he doesnt. If he is just calling KK all the way to the river he isnt playing the hand right, he doesnt need a bigger explanation.
I think you lost your way somewhere, because the one that wants feedback is the guy who posted the hand, just keep it simple. Its NL2 the guy doesnt have info on the raiser i would probably just re raise the flop and if he called with 22 or 44 take a note

I just put a note in a related thread pointing here.

The thing is, should we be provoked getting committed here, and assume that in the other thread, villain rarely gets provoked getting committed? Reraising is isolating versus a much stronger range than he has up until now.

It is these tendencies I am exploiting (there) and avoiding (here). At the same time, I am letting him bluff it off here. Still no reason to see suited many connectors in range but not 22/44. We have position. If he stops betting, we can still get his stack with a better hand.

I would not be reraising flop. You want villain to continue with his bluffs and draws. He is unlikely to do so if you reraise in this spot.
Besides, you only have KK. Save the 3bets for your monster hands and your monster draws on this board.

Thanks for the discussion guys! I folded here indeed because I have the feeling that villain is not betting the third street as a bluff. The size looked to me that he was eager for a call..
