FOLD. This is never a bluff and you only beat 3 kings..

Why is this never a bluff? Im also folding this without a decent read. Please explain why this isnt a bluff though? Also, isnt villain occasionally slowplaying a weaker K?

There are only two kings we can beat - K3 and K6. We split with K8. Villain is very loose, so any K is in his range IMO.

There's a chance he's bluffing, but are we willing to pay an extra $44 to win the $55 pot?

I think folding is best. The overbet pot tactic is very often a very strong hand at these stakes (and most stakes up until 3/6+ I'd say) and I think you definitely see a hand that beats you in this spot if you call.

Another option is to block, maybe get some value out of TT or something on the river.

Fold. Risking too much to potentially gain too little.
