Need some help on this one.. villain has played fairly agressively, many pot-sized bets and some huge overbet allin's, none of which have been called.

6-Max NL 400 on Pacific
Lukie: $545
Villain (CO): $444

Lukie dealt KK in SB.
UTG and UTG+1 fold.
CO min-raises to $8.
Lukie reraises to $22 total.
BB folds.
CO calls.

Flop: 4c 2c 6d

Lukie bets $30.
CO calls.

Turn: 4c 2c 6d 3h

Lukie checks.
CO bets $29.
Lukie calls.

River: 4c 2c 6d 3h Js
Lukie bets $40.
CO goes all-in.
Lukie folds.

I'm interested how you guys would have played this, especially on the turn and river. I'm thinking the villain sensed weakness in the check/call on the turn and 1/4 sized bet on the river and pushed on a bluff. It could have also easily been a preflop steal with 5x and he could have had the straight. Thoughts?

I don't understand why you check/called the turn. I'd keep on betting if not check/raise the turn.

If the villian is truly as aggressive as you said, I don't see why you don't call here.

I can see checking the turn to try to check-raise him, but yeah. YOu've got to make a stand sometime, and KK is as good a hand as any.

Because of the fact that this is 6 max, and because you said that villian ha dbeen stealing lots of pots, this is an easy call.

He could have AJ. He doesnt show any strength after the flop until the river . His turn bet is just trying to take advantage of your check. When the J falls he probably actually thinks he has the best hand. I call.
