Default 5$/45: KK how to max value here?

No reads on villain.
Do you prefer a CRAI or bet here?

push.
He calls here with any Q, mabey even T thinking you are uberweak, so good old suspicious overpush ftw.

I think the push is the worst option here.

Bet flop ~1100 and hope for the villain hit the queen.

Push is fine, normal cbet is fine, depends on what you think of villain, what you feel like doing, etc. Q isn't folding to a push, may get a T to call a cbet that would fold to a push, but that largely gets cancelled out by Q hands getting spooked on the turn and folding, and the occasions where T hands suck out on you. Both lines seem pretty equal to me, I'd probably just bet like 800 as a default, but I don't really think it matters.

I bet ~1000 as a value bet on the flop.
Its a big pot so nothing wrong with taking it down now.
Why check and let him get a free card?

A CR is a good idea if he's been aggressive post flop, but with no reads I just bet out.
