Default $11 Speed KK on paired flop

I'm not at all happy with this, but then again, I can't find any line I'm happy with.

Party Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t20/t40
10 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t2000
UTG+1: t1840
UTG+2: t1840
MP1: t2540
MP2: t2000
MP3: t1840
Hero: t2000
Button: t1980
SB: t1960
BB: t2000

Pre-flop: (10 players) Hero is CO with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
UTG folds, UTG+1 calls t40 (pot was t60), UTG+2 folds, MP1 calls t40 (pot was t60), MP2 calls t40 (pot was t60), <font color="#cc0000">MP3 raises to t80</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to t320</font>, 5 folds, MP2 calls t280 (pot was t460), MP3 calls t240 (pot was t460).

Flop: Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (t1100, 3 players)
MP2 checks, <font color="#cc0000">MP3 bets t100</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to t725</font>, <font color="#cc0000">MP2 raises all-in t1680</font>, <font color="#cc0000">MP3 calls all-in t1420</font>, Hero folds.
Uncalled bets: t160 returned to MP2.

Turn: 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (t4865, 0 player + 2 all-in - Main pot: t4865)


River: A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (t4865, 0 player + 2 all-in - Main pot: t4865)


Results:
Final pot: t4865

I can't fold to that first bet and just calling along seems weak, although I have a feeling some would suggest that. Do you raise him? And if you do, how much? Folding to the allins are of course a no brainer.

Default Re: $11 Speed KK on paired flop

First off, I raise more preflop, probably up to 450-500 as there is already 260 in the pot by the time it gets to you. Your bet is small enough that given the size of the pot, you are getting a lot of callers.

On the flop, I would probably only raise to 500 or so and then muck to the push.
