Poker Stars $0.10/$0.25 No Limit Hold'em - 4 players

SB: $21.58
Hero (BB): $32.07
CO: $25.00
BTN: $27.06

Pre Flop: ($0.35) Hero is BB with K A
1 fold, BTN raises to $0.75, 1 fold, Hero raises to $2.25, BTN calls $1.50

Flop: ($4.60) 7 5 J (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN checks

Turn: ($4.60) A (2 players)
Hero bets $3.25, BTN raises to $9, Hero calls $5.75

At turn my hand is face up basicly, i am not sure if he would do it with AQ or AT, obv. he would play JJ and AJ like this, not sure if I beat any part of his range except for bluffs (like 0% of the tiome he bluffs this spot probably)

what should I do at turn? should i cbet the flop? call turn raise and check fold river? thanks!

in a standard btn vs blind 3bet spot at 25NL my default would be to $2.75 from a 3x open, OOP. The smaller it is, the worse it is, because they can peel with speculative hands and position and outflop big hands, and that's bad. You need to get more value PF.

There are times and situations to check after you 3bet preflop OOP, but generally speaking, first to act you should be betting almost always, like at least a 90% c-bet being OOP when you 3-bet from the blinds. I know you don't wanna go too far with just overs and not much in backdoors, but you need a pretty extraordinary read to wanna check more than bet most of the time.

My 3-bet/check range, HU, OOP when I've 3-bet already, is basically {top set} and player-specific times when I have a read he'd bet if checked to (maybe flopped nut flush, or top two to check/raise vs aggros, etc)

As played, I'm bet/3betting the turn and feeling pretty confident about it.

Grunch: This is so player dependent. So stats would be helpful.

I normally make it 2.75 OOP in order to stop speculative hands coming along.

Flop: If we bet flop, we have to double barrel (usually) because we are never getting 99 to fold to one bet

Turn: As played, you rep Ax here and villain raises you. Without reads/ history, generally time to fold. But I hate folding tptk in 3b pots. But OP post stats and reads and history next time ok?

Without any stats on villain, we can only give you generic answers. We have know idea whether cbetting this flop is a good idea when we know nothing about your opponent.

If you check flop you should be checking this turn a lot.

What hands do you think you are getting value from? AQ and that's it (you have Kd, so very few diamond combos) and I'll rather he bet his AQ for me or let him bluff at it with his 99.

Flop check/give up is fine depending on reads. I don't always cbet 3bet pots OOP.
