 villain had been really aggro since i sat down ~50 hands ago. He had floated Howie and junkmail, and im petty sure he floated me earlier when he called a 3/4 psb on the flop when i had flopped a set of K's on a 2 heart board. The turn brought a heart and he bet it pretty strong. I folded. no HUD stats

Your flop raise is weird. I probably just push the flop b/c any other raise size (besides your tiny one) makes for awkward turn stack sizes. As raised on the flop I think your turn push is good.

BTW, you folded top set??? I'd want to see the hand history, but bet that flop closer to pot and think about pushing over his turn lead...

Really weird hand. I'd expect villain to 3-bet/push the flop after leading, or fold. His small bet/call is just weird.
As played I like your turn push.
Pushing flop actually seems a decent play.

The hand earlier you talked about also drew my attention, the way you described it I can't see folding there tbh.

 i played the KKK hand at work, so i dont have the HH here at home.

I open KK in MP for $4, villain calls from BU. Flop is Kh5hx. I fire $7 and villain calls. Turn is 2h, i check planning to CRAI a normal bet but villain fires out a $45 into a ~$25 pot and my CR wouldnt have even been a min-bet. So i folded.

Maybe this is terrible, but at the time it really felt like the right play.

You had the K of hearts? Seems like you did the right thing though.

Shoving looks like a draw. I think a little bigger flop bet ($20) would accomplish what you want to do here.

Wow, I don't know about folding the KKK hand, but you may not have know how agg he was. Nh, villain.

On the OP, I like the bluff play. The worst hand that is a likely call from your villain as described is KK. I think it looks like you have AA and are defending against the draw to scoop a nice pot now. If he had a monster and didn't raise you, curse the poker gods of electronic deck shuffling.
Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.
