Default can I let go of KK anywhere here?

Villain is 51/4/2.9 over only 50 hands.
BB is a horrible horrible player and is the reason that I'm at this table.

Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

Preflop: Hero is MP with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB calls, BB calls, <font color="#CC3333">UTG caps</font>, Hero calls, SB calls, BB calls.

Flop: (16 SB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB folds, BB calls, <font color="#CC3333">UTG 3-bets</font>, Hero calls, BB calls.

Turn: (12.50 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, Hero calls, BB calls.

River: (15.50 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, Hero

Can I fold this anywhere? I really wanted to but somehow couldn't being myself to do it. After I get 3bet on the flop I'm pretty sure I'm behind.

Giving him a capping range of JJ-AA, AKo, AKs, AQs I don't think he'd 3bet anything I'm ahead of except AcKc or the other KK, and thats a total of 2 hands. He might 3bet AQs too I guess, he is pretty aggro.

Edit: What is a standard win % for KK? 63.7% seems low to me, only slightly higher than my JJ.

No, you can't get rid of this anywhere. Infact, I lose at least 1 more BB on this hand than you did.

I wouldn't have been able to fold here.

I play flop the same and probably raise the turn since there are so many draws that didn't come in and I want to charge UTG/fold BB and we don't get 3bet without a monster here. As played the river call is so so so so so so so simple with all the draws missing.

Against an unknown, you can't fold.

Since you have a read and his PFR is so low, you might be able to fold. But seeing a showdown can't be a large mistake.

Edit: Bleh. I take that back. I think AQ/AQs is entirely too likely. Don't fold.

If you're going to fold this at all, it has to be on the turn. Once you've called the turn and the river blanks you have to call again.

I don't think I can find a fold here; he has AA/QQ often here, but not 94% of the time (16.5:1).

Agreed, you got off cheaper than I would have as well.

Looks good to me.

Anyone like raising the turn and folding to a 3-bet to punish the draws? How often would AQ 3-bet and move us off
the best hand at 1/2? BB sure looks like a flush draw that would be willing to call 2 now, but fold a blank river to me.

I think putting in any more bets in this hand is spewing. I think you played it well.
