Default KK MTT hand - please comment

I just got backt to playing some poker online this semester. I played at Stars all over last summer, but this time I bought into Empire.

This is from their $5+1, 1000 guranteed tournament.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed) converter

BB (t3534)
Hero (t800)
UTG+1 (t3145)
MP1 (t2738)
MP2 (t4675)
MP3 (t1505)
CO (t585)
Button (t641)
SB (t980)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t100</font>, <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, Button calls t100, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>.

Flop: (t245) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t200</font>, Button calls t200.

Turn: (t645) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets t30</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t500 (All-In)</font>

First major hand of the tourny, is my flop bet good or should I bet more? Turn all-in?

Should I bet the turn? I didn't have any clue what he had.

What if instead of 30, he had bet 300 ?

Pre-flop is standard, the $200 bet after the flop is fine, I probably would've bet the same. Checking the turn is pretty weak. I think any good player would put you on KK or QQ here with your UTG raise and probably put you to the test no matter what he had. So I think your check is wrong, unless you are willing to give up on the hand and continue with 500 chips (16-17xBB), not a bad idea if you think he called your raise with an Ace. Depending on whether or not you would call the rest of your opponents stack (341) if you checked and he went all-in, you might consider pushing here yourself. So your only plays are to go all-in or check-fold. I would probably check and fold to a reasonable bet, as weak as it may be, and find a better spot to put my money in.
When he bets 30, I would probably just call and hope for a check-check on the river.

i really dont' know what to say about this, excpet that you will get called by an A more than you'll fold one and he'll just fold hands you're crushing anyways.
