Generally I would fold on turn in this situation, but since the bet amount was not that high and I also already saw that guy betting hard with marginal hands, I thought It would be worth it to pay the price.

What would you guys do?

I would check on the flop, to many draws that villain might have.

In the situation from the hand, I would probably call the turn also. You beat the AJ+. Don't think villain has a T here since you block it. KK would have raised you on the pre-flop or flop.

It turned out nice 🙂

Not sure you can use a the auto reload function on PartyPoker, but normal I would always play with a stack of at least 100bb. it's interesting to know why you are leading flop with in mind villain is the pre-flop aggressor. That's the same with leading the river.

it's because he already raised 3x with mediocre hands before to make people fold, so I thought my raise on flop would make him fold.

why are you leading the Flop? default play is to always check to the preflop raiser here.

If you were really that strong, why didn't you re-raise preflop? (with QQ-AA, AK)
So you cannot really have overpairs here.

Does this board connect better with your range than your opponent's range? Probably not. so playing a strategy where you lead out with something and check with nothing sounds like a recipe for disaster. just check everything as part of a simplified, well-balanced strategy.
