So you want him to fold everything worse and call with everything better?

Given your weaksauce 4bet I wouldn't expect him to fold any of his 3betting range, make of that what you will. if you are going to shut down if called and fold to a raise WHY ARE WE BETTING? Oh yeah, to push out QQ which is the hand we want to keep in the pot.

Depends on the opponent but in general I'd rather just make a decent sized 4bet if I intend on calling a shove OR just call the 3bet if I think he's only stacking off with AA.

I doubt this is one of your major leaks. This is a good fold once you bet the flop but I hate the flop bet. Nothing worse calls (occasionally QQ does but it's much easier to get value from QQ on later streets) so in a way you are turning your KK into a bluff which is not goot.
