calling down you just never know where you stand. bet on the flop and see what happens

Betting to find out "where you stand"? Um... no.

Especially here, because where you stand is way ahead/way behind. In general, betting is fairly useless in this type of situation because you fold out worse hands only, and you don't want to play a big pot.

OP's line is fine, river call or fold is a tossup.

i'd fold river if i played it like this, but i'd bet the flop for value, then check the turn, and bet the river. you want 2 streets here (that doesnt contradict my river fold btw)

Wait a minute, don't you have AA in a 3bet pot? I thought bet flop, shove turn was super standard here? Are we that afraid of AK? Am I missing something? Ok, enough questions.

this is a 3b. flop check is fine. now call river.

I like the line here. betting every street is spew.

My logic was that I would get more value by letting him catch up a bit, and that the turn prolly didnt help him, so by checking I would be able to induce more bluffs.
Would people like betting out on the flop more if it was KKQ or KKJ?

I like your line. If we bet here we are going to loose much money to a possible K and gaining less from weaker hands. If we Check/call here we extract more value out of weaker hands and loose less to a K.
