Villain: 58/5

OTF I think I should have bet bigger, like 2/3 pot.

Would you call a min-raise on the flop? I think villains do this with top pair kind of hands a lot, so I called, to see what happens on the turn.
I think 3betting is not a good idea, is it? Most likely only better hands would call.

PokerStars - $0.02 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

UTG: 162.5 BB
MP: 100 BB
CO: 54.5 BB
BTN: 106 BB
SB: 99 BB
Hero (BB): 102 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has K♦ K♣

fold, fold, CO calls 1 BB, fold, SB calls 0.5 BB, Hero raises to 5 BB, CO calls 4 BB, SB calls 4 BB

Flop: (15 BB, 3 players) T♠ 3♦ 9♦
SB checks, Hero bets 8 BB, CO calls 8 BB, SB raises to 16 BB, Hero calls 8 BB, CO calls 8 BB

What turns are we looking for -- or wanting to avoid.
Opponents ranges lean toward sets and flush draws.

Do we fold to a bet if a diamond falls?
If the board pairs?

Generally not folding turns but anything that improves our equity or hand strength is good so Q J diamonds K.Villain might have some tp hands and straight draws as well as flush draws 2 pair sets etc..But looking at villains stats being 58/5 it would be nice to know how many hands as it's very passive preflop.

OTT with a 4:c (complete blank) villain shoved for 78 BB. I folded. Do you think I should have called?

Being a passive player i think we can let it go on the turn so ye well played imo i wouldn't worry to much about this player type exploiting you by folding your actually exploiting villains passive tendencies.I dont hate calling though it's one i really dont want to let go of it's just villains stats being passive i dont think this line is weak from them.
