Because he will 3-bet an A, call down a 5/PP, and fold his air.

Scott,

If he threebets you can safely fold imo and OP feels he is bluffing too often. I either take the stance that i will call him down or make it expensive for him to do it, if i raise the turn i am putting on more money in the pot. I'm not sure either line is better than OP's, just throwing out suggestings about ways to deal with such a player. Also if Op plans to stay at the table for a while and shows down K high played this way it will do wonders for him vs this player. I'd be interested in your comments on what i have suggested.

Yea sure you can - but you just invested 2BB's to be able to figure out if you can fold.

By raising the turn, we basically get him to fold a bluff (bad) or pay 2-bets to figure out he has an A and then fold (bad) or pay 2-bets to have him call us down with a 5 or PP (bad).

Raising the flop instead allows us to accomplish what we want at much less of a cost.
