About the hand in the OP, I'd still play it very hard, happily going for a cap on the turn, but not more than 2 on the river if the other guy kept pushing. The preflop action would be helpful in determining how many bets. If he called in a multiway pot from the BB I'm much more worried than I would be if he open raised EP or 3 bet someone else.

You would've thought the turn checkraise even would've told him I had the trips, but I think because of the flop lead he put me on a weak jack. I would've capped, but after the checkraise and flopraise I figured him at least for A3s if not JJ or 44. Moral of the story kids, if you're gonna play AJo from first position you should raise it, would've saved this dude a lot of money.

I really think what happened here was the the guy didn't believe for a second that I flopped trips because it seems to be an unwritten rule that YOU DON'T PLAY A BIG FLOP FAST. So he thought I had a 7 of some stripe in my hand and he was going to nail me. By the time the 7 hit on the river, who knows what the hell he was thinking because I confused the hell out of him with the 3-bet and the continued aggression. Obviously, he didn't know what the hell to think, only that he was going to hang onto that KK for dear life.
He was a particularly tight player -- 12% VPIP in about 100 hands that I'd been at the table with him and didn't seem to have much problem folding trouble hands. A check-raise on the flop might have scared him away, whereas he didn't believe me when I led out because you just don't do that. A check-raise would have told him I had a 6.
