if you think he'll do that as a bluff, there's no reason why we can't call him twice

but another the problem with checking KK on Axx is because we're more likely to get value bet really thin by TPNK that realizes that we have middle pair or a similar hand to what we have (JJ-KK)

so actually both of those things are a problem
also, if villain checks A83 flop and I have 77 I will c/f turn because I think it's a lot of 99-KK and Ax
but if he cbets I will often call because he would cbet his air
so actually betting KK would be superior because it gets value from worse
