Why lead the turn here? Chances are very slim that he has backdoor hearts. I'd rather c/r the turn and get more of his money. I mean youre going broke here if he has a K anyways. Let him bluff/bet his 7/bet his small pp here and get more money out of him.

Why are we going broke if he has a King? I raise trips on the flop all the time. I like call turn raise/lead turn because it is a WA/WB situation and leading the turn grants you the pot when you're ahead and lets you get off your aces when you're behind.

I don't lose 100BB's with aces on two high card flops.

If you call the flop raise, it's because you think a bluff or weaker hand is a big part of his range (or else you wouldn't call). So why not let him fire a second barrel and check-call the turn? If the turn checks through you can vb the river; and he probably won't even raise your donk on the river with a king and it might give him a chance to catch up with a bluff and call. If he's really agro and bluff-happy you can let him fire a 3rd barrel.

I like checking on the turn and calling a bet on the river if I felt I had the best hand, I see no reason to bet the turn Ks are reraising or just calling to trap and if ur villian is prolly folding. Ur in position so u can see whats coming at u on the river.
