I felt really lost here. I think he knows I'm going to cbet regardless of my hand, so this would be a pretty weird line with an A. I'm not sure if Villain is good enough to second-level think here. I'm pretty sure Villain second barrels here with his entire range when called.

If Op is pretty sure that he's up against a turn bet.

Folding is an option we save 200, its a weak play though with KK.

If we call, PS is 700 on the turn. i dont see villain betting less than 400.


Id raise to 450. Which accomplishes :

1)Opponent might shove, we fold. we lose 450.

2)Opponent might call, check turn, we could check behind on the turn, if opponent shoves river we fold, if he checks we value bet against a T. if we assume its equally distributed.
We lose 450 1/2 of the time. win 1200 + Value Bet.

3)Opponent folds his hand which could be ( PP < T's) a T or air. we win 500.
