Villain was 3betting every hand, even the junkies (like this for example).
So I decided to 4bet my Kings to eventually GII pre.
On the flop I decided to pot and commit, calling very wide preflop, fish can have all sort of weak holding, plus i have overpair+gutshot to the nuts.

The turn was actually the worst turn card ever, IMO.. And when he snap donk shoved the last 8$ in 23$, even if it's a very low SPR situation, i think i should fold this hand?
I snap called but mostly because i was tilted about the situation and didnt want to make the fish win this big hand against me, but thinking about it i think I should fold, because he has a lot of Qx...

Any thoughts?
Thanks to everyone

If he's 3betting literally every hand then gg ul better luck next time this is standard

Seems awkward because of the 4bet preflop 200bbs deep with dry KK. I prefer to play deep SPR situations with hands that only make 2nd sets. Obviously 4betting is not a mistake though given read.

Caveat: his 3bet stat isn't as important as his F4B stat.

Rest of the hand seems fine too, not gonna win SD high freq

You don't need a set to stack off and make money at a 2 SPR against someone 3-betting this often.

I'm just saying playing one pair is awkward and that's the majority of what you're going to have with dry KK. Also he could be 3betting and folding the majority of his range to 4bets, which with a hand that so strongly dominates his 3betting range (KK) leans us towards calling instead and keeping his range wide. This is why I mentioned his F4B stat being more important than his naked 3B stat. If he folds to a lot of 4bets I prefer calling with such a strong hand, if he calls all 4bets then 4bet all day.

most unimportant stat ever.
also, OP doesnt need to state it. he folds 0% against 4bets.

I disagree it's unimportant but if it is low then definitely 4bet and pot pot

yeah I didn't mention it but he was calling every 4bet.. obviously fishing around

I don't see how it's awkward -- you just bet pot and go from there. And that particular player type (3-betting tons and folding most of it to 4-bets) seems mythical.

You're probably right about the last part. Just thinking out loud. It's awkward because we need two bets to get in for a huge pot with one pair. I'm definitely not feeling great about pot potting with one pair. Sure the SPR is low, but the bets are almost a buyin each. It just 'feels' better to have hands that have good board coverage for deep 4bet pots and those hands don't usually contain pairs.
