Default $16 Stars: KK hoping to get more chips out of it

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (4 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

UTG (t4190)
Hero (t2610)
SB (t5105)
BB (t1595)

Preflop: Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG calls t200, Hero raises to t2610</font>, 2 folds</font>, UTG folds.

Final Pot: t3110

UTG is a donk but I didnt think he was gonna call, although I was kind of hoping for one. I was hoping I could get more value out of this hand. Whats the best way to play KK in this situation?

raise to 700-750, push any non-A flop vs donk.

Reraise but don't push allin. You want him to call and see a non-A flop.

I would reraise to 600-650.

raising to 550 is horrible !
raise must be at least 650, 700-750 is way better.

ps: traedamatic, noone raised before hero so there isn't any reraising involved.

800, shove any non A flop.

why are you raising so small and make a flop shove so awkward? 800 leaves you a PSB on the flop, and it should be the standard raise anyway

I somehow believe a 600 -650 raise can be more profitable at
the 16s

raising 600 leaves you 2k with a 1500 pot on the flop...making a regular bet makes you look very strong, and a shove is a 1.25x overbet of the pot
