Default donkbet into pocket kings on A high board

No stats yet. What do you do against this kind of bet? What if he follows with a bet on the turn?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

MP ($3.20)
Hero ($4.99)
Button ($7.65)
SB ($4.98)
BB ($10)
UTG ($2.22)

Preflop: Hero is CO with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG calls $0.02, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $0.1</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, UTG calls $0.08.

Flop: ($0.23) A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $0.1</font>, Hero ?

hmmm

first thought to raise him up, but we have the backdoor nut draw so i think floating this would be hot. if he half pots it again i'd probably pitch readless but might call another shot and fold river. if he bets smaller than that you can keep calling hoping he's betting his draw small.

I'd pop it up to 0.3. If you call here, you'll never know if he has the A/flush draw. A raise here will make weaker aces fold, flush draws pay to draw, and you can fold to a repop.

More than likely a villain with an ace UTG will raise, no?

i am much more leaning towards the float on this flop. repopping is probably not folding any "worse" As out. also, HU w the Kc in our hand, im not as worried about villain hitting a flush. i think this is WA/WB, and i think its 50/50 but i think we lose any additional value on later streets w this hand.

as Boz said, if villain 2/3-pots turn i fold, less i probably call again and a check im considering VBing the river if checked to as well.

8/10 times when villains leads a pot with a weakish bet that you raised PF a 3bet gets them to fold. They are just seeing if their weak ace or middle pair is good I think.

Calling here sort of sucks you in, I prefer 3betting and c/f turn and river if he calls.
