Default 100NL- KK in a very awkward position on the flop when an A hits

Villain is 33/12/3.4 over 90 hands. He only has about $50 left on the flop.

Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.50/$1 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

<u>SB: $72.60</u>
<u>Hero (BB): $100</u>
UTG: $100.95
MP: $151.60
CO: $84
BTN: $112.65

<font color="black">Preflop:</font> Hero is dealt K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (6 Players)
UTG calls $1, 3 folds, <font color="red">SB raises to $6</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $20</font>, UTG folds, SB calls $14

<font color="black">Flop:</font> ($41) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
SB checks, Hero?

I'm never folding here but how can I get my opponents money when he has a lower PP? Should I check behind here? Or put him all in? Or bet $30 call a push?

I like to check behind here and let villain possibly bluff his chips away on the turn. If villain has a hand like 88, he may just muck it to a flop bet. But if you check behind, it gives him the opportunity to bet his chips on the turn. There are no draws on the board, so you're already either way ahead or way behind. Just let him put the chips in himself.

Why are you never folding here? Because of his aggression factor?

I don't think a lower PP calls a lot on this flop if you bet, so I check.

very little value in betting, just check and fill up on the turn

Well he only has a PSB left here and when someone calls for like a 1/3 of their chips PF I think they will go broke on boards like this.

What calls the 14 dollar re-raise pre-flop?

AA pushes
KK Pushes and is discounted because you have KK
QQ 1/2 push 1/2 call (this villian probably closer to the push range?)

Calls
AKs, AK, AQs, JJ, TT (maybe)....

I am gonna do some grunching today...*Grunch*

Check all day, everyday. If you are sure you aren't folding, give him a chance to bet. He doesn't fold an ace to a bet, and will most likely fold any lower PP.

I switch into a passive check-call mode all the way to the river.
