Raise. He could be checkraising here with any pair or a number of draws. If he 3bets, call down unless you improve on the river.

2 options.

Raise and fold to 3-bet.
Call down, bet the river if he checks.

I like #2.

There are a whack of things he could be cr with on the flop. Almost all of them you can beat with your Kings. I like raising the turn and calling down if he 3 bets. If you are going to be at the table for awhile you might as well see early what he goes to war with.

More often he is the one going into calldown mode.

I like calling down a 3bet, not folding. Your T outs are pretty clean and you can suck out on a lot of two pairs.

EDIT: Therein, bob. Therein.

I like calling the turn and betting or raising the river.

By the way, my favorite part of this post was when you told everyone to get over the guy being an unknown.

I think this is an easy turn raise. His range his wide, and he often has a smaller pair or some draw, or both. Make him pay. I think your equity here is huge. Also, if he is on a draw, you may get nothing from him on the river.

If you raise you have to call-down a 3-bet. You have many hidden outs, as well as a gutshot. Hell, your hand may even be good still. I think #2 is not extracting near as much as we can from him. We have a VERY strong hand at this point.
