Default KK in a reraised pot

No reads really, villain is new to table but according to my stats over 30 hands, he is playing 30/18, with an AF of 2 FWIW...

Canīt say I like this flop too much, hits lots of medium pairs which he could coldcall a RR with. He called the RR fairly quickly, which sometimes suggests JJ/QQ...do I risk my stack to find out or fold lite a little girl?

Ps. I know flopbet is kind of smallish, but do I want to bet big on this flop, which I donīt like too much? Not too many hands that I beat have more than 2 outs...

shove or c/r turn. I'm never folding this here. Flop bet is fine, I would rather bet a bit more so the turn shove isn't ridiculous.

I hate this spot. I think if you are going all the way with this, calling flop and c/r AI a safe turn is the best play. I've seen people raise me in 3bet pots and fold to shoves. This could be JJ as well. I really don't know. Flip a coin.

Would villain min raise the flop with a set? Maybe. However, since you took the lead in betting, most villains will let you keep betting their hand for them, especially when they have position on you.

Your flop bet looks weak too, which might be why he reraised. It could be interpreted as two big cards which missed the flop and are just c-betting. It's also possible that he slow-called with AA knowing he'd have position on you in the later rounds.

The problem is that villain has already put half of his stack in to this point, so you have to decide whether or not you are pot committed right now. With the information in front of me, I'm leaning 60/40 toward a fold. The min raise makes me think that he wants you around (unless we've seen him donk minraise in the past, then I don't respect it at all). I might shove if I had some sort of read on villain that said otherwise, but he's definitely pot committed and knows that you reraised him pre-flop, so he has to have some idea of what kind of hand you have, right?

I wouldn't fold here. I think I'd push now rather than c/r the turn. If he was doing a retarded semibluff (very unlikely), you don't give him the turn and river to hit if he chooses to check behind.
