5NL FR KK on AKQ flop

Only 22 hands on villain but he seems to have loose-aggressive tendencies, to say the least: 35/26/2.0AF/40%AggFreq

The bet on the flop is too small I think, I was hoping to induce a raise by betting small, with the flop hitting everybody's range. Obviously this cunning plan miserably failed.

The bet on the turn I think is also too small because it leaves a full PSB for the river. Would have been better to size it to have 2/3 to 3/4 PSB left on the river. On the spot I was more thinking about not folding his weak two pairs and top pair hands.

River: the T is a real bad card because of all the J's in his range. I see him getting to the river with two pairs or pair+gutshot hands {JJ,ATs+,KJs+,QJs,JTs,ATo+,KJo+,QJo,JTo}, although this may be optimistic because I think he would have raised a lot of the two pair hands on the flop or the turn. Against this range, I have 34.3% equity. What's better? check, blocking bet?

Hero?

Your flop bet size is very bad and is the source of your problems in this hand. I'm pointing this out because it's easy to think it's only a small mistake.

As played, it's hard to know what's best since small changes in his ranges change your EV greatly.

If he's aggro, then a blocking bet wont do much imo. If he has a J he's raising, and a blocking bets just makes you less money vs hands you already beat (as opposed to a straight vbet).

Pre: Consider betting more like $.30 since you are oop and you have a station in the BB.

On flop, if he's that aggro he'll raise if he gets a decent piece.
I dont see the point in trying to be tricky. This is a flop that either hits them or it doesnt (Pairs, sd's, 2pair etc). Just bet! 3/4 is great. They will pay to hit their draw.

By then another 3/4 bet on turn prob has you comitted, or even consider shoving the turn with the amount that could have been in there.

Thats my thought

I like the idea of betting small to induce against a lag/maniac, but there's a couple problems with that here. That's just too few hands to know what he's like, and, even tho his preflop stats are good for that move, his AF is a little low. Alot of guys play lag pre and tag post.

OTR, probably I would c/c, he could turn a worse hand into a bluff, but I'm never folding the set bvb for a psb, even on a 4-str8 board. If he has the J, nh.

pre i would have made a 6bb raise, pot the flop or at least 0,6$ and turn pot bet.... now if you intend to call a river bet, better bet first min 2/3 pot, if not, c/f... this how i would play it.
