Default KK OOP - Why do I find myself always in this position?

Villain is unknown.
Honestly I really have no idea what to do in this situation. Obviously wasn't too happy with the flop since QQ and JJ would be part of the Villain's range. Given the numerous draws, is it best to make a continuation bet? If thats the best line, what should I do if re-raised?

Checking with the intention to cr all in is fine. However i lead into the flop pretty hard most of the time and then push if i am raised.

Hmm... checking the flop- not such a big fan. You could smooth call and get it in on safe turn but there's alot of cards you lose to on the turn or slow the action way down (A, T, 9, diamond, J). I would never check this flop. I would fire about $28- if i get raised it goes for reads. JJ and QQ are a part of villains range, but if you're checking here he's probably firing a fair amount with position. Could have AKdd or somethin. I like calling and getting it in on safe turn or raising with intention of calling shove. Flop check is bad/weak IMO; any danger card on turn or riv comes he can bluff you out b/c u underrepped ur hand and played scared.

lead the flop or crai...

c/c is bad.

you got enough in preflop that even if he hit a set, in the long term you are making money, plus chances are the are hands he pays you with here.
