Default Lay down top two?

My notes of the villian said that he is very tight/aggressive, he had been pretty quiet for a while when this came up.

Im aware that my preflop-call was pretty loose but i have been varying my play lately trying to improve my post-flop skill so i felt id take this shot with the position.

Texas Hold'em No Limit EUR 2,00/4,00
8-handed

Villian (BB) (EUR 176,75)
Hero has Villian easily covered.


Sakuraba (button) was dealt: Kc - Tc

call from MP, sakuraba call, SB fold, Villian check.


Flop Kh - 5s - 4c
(pot 14€)

Villian Check
MP Check
Sakuraba Bet (10,00)
Villian Call (10,00)
MP Fold

Turn Kh - 5s - 4c - Th
(pot 34€)

Villian Check
Hero Bet (21,00)
Villian Raise (50,00)
Hero???

If the answer is call, what to do on the river if its a blank and hero gets bet into. Or if villian checks the river? Is push even an option?

Thanks guys.

I don't understand your comments about the preflop call. KTs is a solidly +EV hand in an unraised pot on the button.

Villain could easily have two random pair from the blind, not a set. There are 12 ways he can have flopped a set, and 21 ways he can have flopped 2 pair. (Don't reraise the turn, he'll be able to fold 54. )

Anyway, call the turn bet, raise him allin on the river unless the 5 or the 4 comes on the river, is my advice.
