Once again, I got too excited with a high pocket pair. And I got even more excited when I hit trips. What should I have done?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (9 handed) converter

MP1 ($2.01)
MP2 ($2.88)
MP3 ($0.61)
CO ($3.24)
Button ($2.09)
SB ($3.30)
Hero ($1.64)
UTG ($4.62)
UTG+1 ($12.97)

Preflop: Hero is BB with K, K.
UTG calls $0.02, 1 fold, MP1 calls $0.02, MP2 calls $0.02, 2 folds, Button calls $0.02, 1 fold, Hero raises to $0.08, UTG calls $0.06, MP1 calls $0.06, MP2 folds, Button calls $0.06.

Flop: ($0.35) 6, T, 4 (4 players)
Hero bets $0.2, UTG calls $0.20, MP1 folds, Button calls $0.20.

Turn: ($0.95) K (3 players)
Hero bets $0.58, UTG folds, Button raises to $1.81, Hero calls $0.78 (All-In).

River: ($4.12) A (2 players, 1 all-in)

Final Pot: $4.12

Results in white below:
Hero has Kc Ks (three of a kind, kings).
Button has Js Qs (flush, queen high).
Outcome: Button wins $4.12.

Go all-in on the turn and hope somebody with top pair calls.

You have a very good hand on the turn with 9 outs to the king high flush, 9 outs to a boat and 1 out to quads, not often do you have these kinds of odds. I think you played it fine. If you had red kings it would be a diferent story. A big bet on the turn is necessary and when he reraises you all-in, calling is your only choice. You could have gone all-in in the first place, as johnny suggested, but I think this play was fine too.
