getting raised with top pair
 

3 off the big blind (EDIT - previously had written 'button'), call with KQo. One other caller and the blinds call. Flop comes K, T, 6 rainbow. I bet out and the preflop limper raises, both blinds fold.

I...?

3 off the button you should be opening it up with a raise, it makes situations like this much easier. I'd probably 3 bet and go from there.

re-read and respond, does anything change? I mis-typed and edited.

First off, you should've raised with this hand preflop. Let's digress.

You have position. So you have a couple of options:

You can 3 bet to define your hand. If he caps (which you will call) and leads the turn you should fold, unless you improve. Or if he smooth calls and check-raises, you should fold.

If this player is known to be loose and aggressive, you should passively call him down by letting him bet a weaker King or a draw.

In heads up situations with position against an opponent who has shown strength, I usually prefer line 2.

The 3 bet lead line, costs 2 big bets, but you might not get to the river if he decides to pop the turn. Calling down from his flop raise costs 2.5 big-bets and you get to showdown. You protect yourself from folding the best hand to a bluff.
