How do you like this play. Usually I'm happy to play KK for all my chips on this sort of board and especially at this level. On the turn should I just raise all in or look to keep it cheap? I don't see many worse hands calling but I also don't see many hands that beat me either.

Re: NL$10 KK line check please
 

raise turn. i see plenty of worse hands calling you with the way he is playing, like the one he is weakly betting into you.

Re: NL$10 KK line check please
 

Raise turn, raise more on the flop ($3.5). This looks a lot like a flush draw, at least until the river. River is a little odd.

Re: NL$10 KK line check please
 

I'd raise to $2 on the flop, shove turn regardless of the turn card. This is $10NL, KK is the nuts and I'd put villain on a AT at best especially given the stats.

You need to raise the flop more. To about 3.50-4. Take notes about his bets. LOL increasing .50 each round. His turn donk has me suspicious especially if I had raised flop more than you did and I probably call down to those cheap bets figuring I'm WA/WB. Either he setting his price for a flush draw or has TT+. Any other read on villain other than stats. Not enough hands for them to be really meaningful except that he's loose preflop.

People bet so goofy at NL10 that it can be hard to put someone on a hand by their bet size. Some people will not bet like you think they are going to. They are not being tricky, its just the way they play. Try to watch for patterns and make notes. This is more a reminder for me than anyone else.

Yep WA/WB was exactly my thinking. I think I probably over analyse things too much for the stakes I play it, but his donk bets screamed "please raise me"

I agree I should raise more on flop. I kinda miscalculated the pot size. I forgot that the pot was already quite big from the preflop action.
