Yes sir!

...it's just what hands are they suppose to have with the board of KK3???

Note two things:

1. By betting out your hand, you are somewhat disguising it. Opponents will not put you on Ks often. Hence, they'll raise, and even reraise, light. I would not at all be surprised to see a player with 88 or similar three-bet this flop.

2. Players play Ks with worse kickers than Ts here, and will never fold them.

Even if you are outkicked, you have outs to beat or tie them. The players that were doing the raising were not the pre-flop raiser here (iirc) and hence I'm not too worried about a hand like AK here.

There's only one more King in the deck for crying out loud. Two players can't have a K and the only other hand you're behind against is 3,3. At least one person, probably two playerrs are getting way out of line. Easy to see how BP might to try to get it heads up in a big pot when he puts you on a 3 since you came out swinging on the flop. Personally I don't like leading with your hand on the flop. The comments from the another poster saying your hand is disguised somewhat is right on IMO as were his other comments FWIW.

Re: Trip Ks on the Flop
 

The real reason why you shouldn't consider folding is exactly what adios is saying. There is only one more king in the deck! That means that for every round of bets going in, two players are donating to you and the other king. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to see that the other king only has to have a worse kicker than you quite seldom for this to be CLEAR value for you.
