Unless this guy has been raising like crazy from the CO, don't three bet with KQo.

Maybe it's weak-tight, but I'm rarely c-betting this flop. So many hands beat you it's ridiculous, and the chance to get bluffed is even more ridiculous.

Since A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]x and K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]x are both way ahead of you, I wouldn't call it a semibluff. It's more like a value bet with the best hand.

And if there are ever hands where you don't want to c-bet, this would be one of those hands. I'd be fine just giving up on that flop.

your cbet is too small. I dont 3 bet and then give up...ever.

although i agree with this 95% of the time, this seems like a flop you might find a pass in

3bet depends on exact villian - it could be standard and it could be bad....depends on your opponent.

C-bet on flop is too small.

3 betting this hand sucks ass against a normal player - at least choose a hand where your equity isnt crippled by his calling range.

if he was an absolute maniac then sure i dont mind the 3 bet but he has to be a total ape to make this standard.

cbetting monotone flops is absolutely fine in my book - i cbet more or less with flop co-ordination so i pot this flop and obv fold to the raise.

if opponent calls a lot of c bets/plays back at you a lot then no worries about not c-betting but almost every move you make here is only my default against a non-standard opponent and as you have included no reads i have to say i think you went wrong on every street here.
