No reads, the turn raise seemed alot like QJ or KQ.

Thoughts? Should I have 3bet the turn?

i'd 3-bet the turn. He may be trying to scare you off your hand. And even if he hit two pair you have 12 outs: 2 K to make a set, 4 T to give you the str8, and any 9 or 4 kills his 2 pair. I doubt he's sitting on K-T considering you have 2 Ks.

i 3 bet the turn because yoiu lose 1 less bet when you are behind and gain the same when you are ahead (assuming you arent folding to a river 3 bet..)

I usually 3bet the turn so they can't take a free showdown on me.

i guess you are also assuming he won't cap if he is ahead, which he will, so you arent saving anything. Unless you plan on folding the river if he caps the turn, which is just bad.

I think he played it perfectly.
