I think you should just fold the flop if you're going to fold this turn. The king didn't really change anything except for giving him a good card to follow through on if he's bluff or semibluffing the flop.

it was just a strange hand for me because i don't think he has KQ becasue he wouldn't push the turn, and i don't think he would push the turn with AQ so I thought i may have been splitting the pot or beating him, after thinking for a while i mucked and felt i made a bad laydown

I think a 3 bet on the flop would have taken it down. I find that often times weak players (like ones who limp call all the time) will use the min-raise as a cheap way to find out where they stand, and therefor a strong 3 bet will more than likely win you this pot.

poker isn't about winning pots, it's about winning money.

I could just shove every hand preflop, I would probably win a tonne of pots but lose a tonne of money.
