80-100 preflop.

Pot the flop, you are probably ahead, but it is a very connected board, don't want to make it cheap.

Raise him near pot on the turn.

Overall, you need to be playing this hand faster -&gt; bigger bets, keep betting.

Preflop I'd make it 100, just b/c I play very tight early in sng's and my standard raise is 100. Bet 100 on flop, there are a lot of cards that can come that can slow you down. Turn the only made hand you fear is one with a 9 and AK, both which aren't likely given your preflop raise and 2 kings in hand. I'd make a pot sized raise here it still seems like he is drawing. If he calls that I'd fold the river to a significant bet.

OH yes ... when I look back at this hand, his donk screams: "please only call my minibet b/c I want to get a cheap card"
When I raise him, he will fold a lot of draws, even if he calls I can look what rivercard comes and have even the position to check behind.

Raise more preflop and bet more on the flop.
As played turn and river are fine. You are ahead a lot here, but the 4 straight on board makes getting value from worse hands a lot harder.

Raising turn is no good here IMHO. We are behind a v. big part of is range, and donk bets like that is just as often "please raise me" as it is "please let me draw cheaply". Bet more on flop, turn and river are fine.
