I don't see what the check/call and then lead does in this spot.

Feels like we have to call

I don't understand how really good poker players can still make posts like these. FWIW, 1800GAMBLER took this line in a posted KK hand a few months ago and every comment was "NH". I think this line is pretty common for good players with an overpair. It definitely is a line I'll use regularly with KK and somewhat with QQ.

I might be completey wrong, I'm definitely not a strong NL player but I like to get involved in interesting threads because I learn something. Taking this line with KK or QQ seems like something that would happen more in a full game rather than a 5 handed one that likely plays fast and loose. Am I wrong on that too?
This also makes me wonder, if we can't call this river, why are we playing AT at all? Or is that bad reasoning?
