And KJo is only 5 combos, while 66 is 3 combos.

In any case, I would actually call the 4-bet pretty automatically, but the decisions from that point on seem more difficult to me. (I'm not confident that continuing to call unimproved on the turn is really best.)

I think I would need a good read that villain won't bet a big draw on the turn to be able to fold. In this case I wouldn't check/fold the turn, villain has been tricky earlier. It must be obvious for villain hero either has a big draw or paired a K. If villain has a draw he knows it not likely Hero has a draw and in that case he has to estimate how often Hero will fold a K if he bets a draw. My guess would be that villain knows Hero is a TAG and betting the turn with a draw won't win him the pot very often. Bet/fold?

If we get checked to, a bet-fold sounds good to me.

I'm not going to be shocked if Villain leads again on the turn with a big draw, though (especially if 4 bets is not a cap and Hero could have 5-bet the flop). The flop 4-bet (once the pot is already heads-up) seems to indicate Villain plans to continue playing his draw aggressively, if that's what he has.

Maybe you counted the combos slightly wrong, but I read the entire hand totally wrong. I thought we were oop and villain cold called. This changes the entire hand, we don't need to discount KJo much and he'll never hold AsQs/AsJs. And since he ain't got position he is less likely to cap the flop with a draw, but if he is he'll probably bet the turn with it. However I wouldn't fold the flop. So I guess it comes down to how often he'll be playing a draw overly aggressive. It seems to me your read is strong so I'll probably just fold the turn if he bets. The fact that we're folding the turn ui along with the fact that he'll bet every turn makes the flop bet slimmer, but I still like it. Tricky situation, very read dependant.
