Default KK facing tough river spot

Villian is 27/11/0.7 over a small sample of 17 hands... we have not been in a big pot earlier... So what is his range and how to i interpret the river action?


Poker skin
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.50/$1
5 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $57.30
CO: $217.47
Hero: $231.62
SB: $30.45
BB: $183.74

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">UTG raises to $2</font>, CO folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $7</font>, 2 folds, UTG calls.

Flop: 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($15.5, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">UTG bets $4</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($23.5, 2 players)
UTG checks, Hero checks.

River: 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] ($23.5, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">UTG bets $17</font>, Hero ????

Two things came to mind right away with this hand.

UTG could be raising with a hand like A10 or AJ. Your re-raise signaled two things to him. Either a hand like AK, or a hand like JJ/QQ.

I think UTG had a hard time interpreting what you had, put a bet on the flop, and when you called, could think that you had a really good A. When you checked the turn, he could have figured that their 1010 or JJ would be good.

This is tough, because you can't beat any A. This river bet feels like a value bet to me. If you call, I hope he shows something like JJ. If not, your screwed.

Close enough it doesn't really matter what you do tbh. I lean slightly towards a fold tbh.

Looks like a bet for value, but wouldnt villain do this with a hand like 99-KK?
