Default 400NL - KK overpair with heavy betting

Party Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $2/$4 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

<u>SB: $396</u>
BB: $460.70
UTG: $110.50
<u>Hero (MP): $521.90</u>
<font color="black"> CO: $162 </font>
<font color="black"> BTN: $555.50 </font>

<font color="black"> Preflop: </font> Hero is dealt K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (6 Players)
UTG folds, <font color="red"> Hero raises to $16 </font>, CO calls $16, BTN calls $16, SB calls $14, BB folds

<font color="black"> Flop: </font> ($68) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (4 Players)
SB checks, <font color="red"> Hero bets $40 </font>, CO calls $40, BTN folds, <font color="red"> SB raises to $125 </font>, <font color="red"> Hero folds </font>

Is this too weak? SB is 25/16 and is definately a winning player at 200nl and 400nl. Can you see such villain raising with a FD here?

Is it worthwhile betting the flop here? If so, should I be betting more?

Oh, and CO is a 51/33 calling station, so I'm not too worried about his call, except it makes SB's raise more frightening IMO.

is he aggro with draws? If he wouldn't c/r a draw here fold otherwise all-in. Fold seems good if you have no idea whether he is overagro.

Given that we are up against a winning regular, I can find a fold here, but it's a tough spot.

I certainly bet flop, and I bet more, 50-60.

You have to bet this flop: 1) For hand protection - the board is drawsy and your hand is vulnerable 2) For value - you have a calling station in the hand, FFS give him the opportunity to do what he does best.

The check-raise is unexpected but you have to fold as a default. He shows alot of strength, and this is much more often a set than a draw.
