Default Wohaa an ace on the flop when holding KK in 3-betted pot!

I'm playing TAG and villain is playing 41/12/2.5. No other reads. Besides villain is betting fairly quick on the river and he's using the potbet button. Does this line seems good?

EverestPoker Game #1961196995: Table Bamako-10 - $2.00/$4.00 - No Limit Hold'em - 00:08:05 - 2007/08/20
Seat 1: HERO ($757.22)
Seat 4: Changuman ($134.30)
Seat 5: lemonstre13 ($304.68)
Seat 6: robin_hood_ ($420.44)
robin_hood_ posts the small blind of $2.00
HERO posts the big blind of $4.00
The button is in seat #5
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to HERO[Kc Kd]
Changuman folds
lemonstre13 raises to $14.00
robin_hood_ folds
HERO raises to $44.00
lemonstre13 calls $30.00
*** FLOP *** [Js Tc As]
HERO checks
lemonstre13 checks
*** TURN *** [Js Tc As] [2c]
HERO checks
lemonstre13 bets $52.00
HERO calls $52.00
*** RIVER *** [Js Tc As 2c] [3h]
HERO checks
lemonstre13 bets $194.00
HERO folds

i don't like it pre flop. what's the problem with taking it up to ~$120? i'm a big advocate of playing KK-AA OOP very fast and strong. get monies in and hold up... don't get too creative.

What? Are you serious? Why would I ever 3-bet so big? And why would I play fast when the flop contained an ace?

The reason I made a little smaller raise than usual is b/c I believe villain calling range is much wider if I bet a bit smaller plus villain didn't have a full BI. I don't mind letting him calling w/ weak hands and make a pair and stack of to me. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
