10nl: A high on KKK flop 10nl: A high on KKK flop

I wasn't sure how to play this hand. I honestly don't know how to play boards that run KKK or 777 etc. I thought my A high is kinda strong on such a dry board, so I bet flop and checked x/c turn, hoping he would start to bluff. On the 4 I pair up, and his bet is kinda polarized, so I decided to call it down.

You are right in that your A has plenty of showdown value. I try to get to the river as cheaply as possibly by check/ calling the flop.. Check/ folding the turn.

I'm not a reg myself, but really don't like the bet on the flop OOP, you're turning what could likely be a best hand into a bluff, he can still float with a pretty wide range and you're just left wondering whether he has a pocket pair a kx type of hand or a random float which all would play the same from his perspective.
As played I think it's just c/f on the turn.

I would x/c flop.. he's less likely to have ace highs since he'd 3b a decent % of them pre (BUvCO being a great situation to light 3bet) so we pick off the odd stab.. we can balance our x/c with ace high by x/calling with weak pairs, say 77-22. If he follows up with double barrel on the 2 I'd fold. It's a massive brick so he can't imagine we're folding anything we called flop with.

As played OTF I'd fold turn. As played OTT I'd fold river.

I'd open this pre only with a real donkey in the blinds and a nit on the button, and with a active player on the button I fold it twice as fast.
