Bad spot with KK 200NL? Bad spot with KK 200NL?

Sorry for posting in the wrong section before. Ill get right into it, so I went up to fallsview a week ago and had pretty good run, up around 400$ buying in for 120$. This was a hand vs a relatively unknown player(female) and my read was she was relatively new to the game and the few hands she won were mostly just draws that got there on the river.

So this is my first hand history posting, bare with me. I do play online but nothing notable and I feel I would learn more from my live hands since the slowness of the game gets me to think a bit more.


Preflop: Hero is on the button with K, K
4 folds, CO raises to 7$, I raise to 20$, SB and BB fold, CO calls

Flop: A Q J
CO Checks, Hero Checks

Turn: 6
CO Checks, Hero bets 35$, CO calls.

River: 6
CO Bets 50$, Hero ??

Results:
Spoiler:

Hero called
Hero had K, K (Ace high Flush with a King).
CO had 10, 10 (Ace high Flush with a Ten).
Hero Wins


Comments: Again, sorry for the bad hand history, will try to fix that up for future since I will be going back to the casino this weekend and perhaps have more eventful hands. As for this hand, was I right not to fire a cbet on the flop as it was pretty scary? Whats the more reasonable line on the turn and river? People were kinda confused at the table after the hands were turned up. Even though I came outta the table a winner tripling my buyin, I just couldn't figure this hand out.

Help a newbie out

Thanks,
Drizz

She bets less than 1/2 the pot into you on the riv. You call for sure. I don't really like raising because there is not much you beat that will call a raise.

Also, a continuation bet on the flop is probably correct

This is alright..oni thing is maybe cbetting this flop..turn n river are fine..ntg that u beat will call a river raise anyways,unless.u have certain history.

She bought in around 80 only but ran it up to around 110 at this point vs me.

Thanks for the help guys.

then all-in surely. nuts-flush against poker newbie - what more is needed for raise? and if he has only $110, then the only one possible raise is all-in.
also with such an effective stacks no need in flop cbets, as you can bet turn and river and get all the money in when ahead. also female newbie as i think wont bet turn as played with worse, so you can eaily see where you are on turn, i.e. if turn is blank and she bets, ace is very probable, if she checks - it is very probably you are ahead and tour bet will look weaker.
p.s. didnt look at spoiler
