NL 2/3 100-500. 10 players
Hero dealt KK (stack 600) in UTG +1 and raises to 20; only 1 caller Villain in HJ (stack 350). Villain is an average player. Somewhere between tight and loose, average aggressiveness.
Flop 3 4 8 rainbow.
Hero?

Bet $20. Barrel any non A/8 turn for $55, and pretty much any river that isn't an 8, A, or makes a 4 liner straight. Play turn and river as bet/folds if you don't improve.

Bet for fat value. Between half and 2/3 pot on a dry board. Probably looking to get two streets of value (three if he's loose/passive), I might check turn if he calls flop, or might barrel.
