That's a scary hand. Too many calls pre-flop. I'm betting someone has the A. I would have done what you did probably unless player info told me different.

Bet the turn. Good fold on the river.

I would bet.

Don't give these guys too much credit where they don't deserve it.

If it goes bet/call/raise, I would fold.

If it goes bet/fold/raise, I would call down.

If it goes bet/raise/call or fold, I would fold.

I'd bet the turn. Given that you didn't, nice river fold.

Re: KK on AAx board (6 max)
 

I would have bet the turn and if checked raised, I would fold. I would have played the river as you did.

I think you have to bet the turn. If someone has an ace, you're going to find out about, and you will be able to fold. If nobody has an ace, you could win the pot, or you could charge anyone who has a flush draw or gutshot.

You could easily be ahead on the turn, so you want to make a flush draw or gutshot pay to draw, or at least find out where you are. You get C/R'ed, you dump the hand. You might even get a free showdown out of a turn bet.

How you played it, this is an easy river fold.
