Re: Tough spot with KK
[ QUOTE ]
This flop is a def. raise. I'm assuming he 3-bets a little lighter in blind defense situations, esp. with those aggressive PF. stats. Any ace or heart destroys out hand. No need to get too tricky.

Since hero holds the king of hearts, there are only two or three hand obvious combinations that have the heart draw. If OP had a reason to think that villain might be three-betting a wider range then raising the flop for protection is fine. If villain is on a tighter range, though, we need to tread more cautiously or we have the potential to get all of our money in way behind. I wouldn't just look at villain's stats and assume that he's three-betting without a premium hand.
