Villain's 45 bet on the flop is too small to fold to. Call and gauge on the turn.

Looks like he missed too- I 3x here and see how villian reacts.

And what's your plan if he re-rerases back? What's your move on the turn if he calls?

Re: $22 - How do you play KK with a flopped A?
 

Fold/check-fold.

If he shows any strength in this hand, you want to go away as fast as you can.

Thats what I normally do and they fold very often. The minibet at the lower limits is some perverse form of blocking bet with no attention paid to the board most of the time.

Re: $22 - How do you play KK with a flopped A?
 

i would read that small bet as a blocking bet for his flush draw.

raising to 150 in a 500 pot gives him the odds to draw though.

raise to 300.

Preflop: Hero is Button with K, K.
3 folds, MP1 raises to t50, 2 folds, CO calls t50, Hero raises to t200, 2 folds, MP1 calls t150, CO folds.

Flop: (t472.50) 2, A, 3 (2 players)
MP1 bets t45, Hero ??

His bet is essentially a check for all intents and purposes, and I don't mind giving a free card here being the ace of clubs is on the board, WA/WB IMO. Call and see if you catch another club on the turn - if he donkbets again he's liable to have nothing.
