NL 20 KK on an A-high flop

No stats on villain but he's been (almost) min-raising a couple of hands earlier. Anyone betting the turn? I just can't think I'm ahead of anything else than the unlikely FD that's not an Ace. Fold is standard, right?

what does this mean?

That's a really weak bet but w/ no reads, I find a fold here.

Unless villain is known for his trickery, this is a fold.

If he'd call a reraise of his raise preflop, it seems like he probably has 22+, AJ+, KQ, maybe 54s-JTs. You make a standard cbet which he calls, so we'll say he has at least an overpair. his turn bet is weak.

Hands you're afraid of: dd, 33, AA, 55, AJ+
Hands you're not afraid of that he still has: 66-QQ, KQ

You're behind more often than not, but you're getting 5:2 on your money, and your odds are better than that. I would probably fold out of fear of having to put in a lot more on the river, but if he typically checks the river a call could make sense.
