Default KK on pretty average board in 3bet pot. am i too weak in these spots?

villain is 26/15/2 over 90 hands.

i really suck at playing big pairs in these (what i perceive to be) dodgy situations. should i just be trying to get the money in here on the flop? his turn bet was fairly big so i just went into calldown mode. tbh im unsure about how to proceed on any of the streets. so i guess comments on all streets appreciated.

apologies if this is standard, but this appears to be a major leak in my game that i want to fix.

Party Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $3/$6 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

SB: $684.30
Hero (BB): $743.75
UTG: $120.00
MP: $269.75
CO: $971.70
BTN: $587.25

Turn: ($144) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)

just bet the damn flop.. you dont want to slowplay when the flop has that texture. there are a lot of hands that will pay off here no need to let them catch up for free

generally you should be thrilled to get the money in the middle on the flop. unless villain is SUPER NIT or some other read/history
