You were the PF raiser and raised a solid amount. AK is a real obvious hand for you to have with that raise. QQ is also a definite possibility. So is AA, which nobody should expect to bluff you out of. For that matter, you could have KK.
So your opponents have to think you have a real good hand. In fact, you have a worse hand than they probably expect.
Now, you have a bet and a call coming at you before you even get to bet on the flop. Only crazy people are making that bet without a K of their own. (The call could be JT.)
Anybody with the guts to rep a K, not having it, first to act, into a field of 5 players including a preflop raiser -- that's crazy. If he's bluffing, he's a crazy idiot bluffer and you shouldn't call. Wait and take his money another time.
BTW, I wish I could think fast enough to make this fold in a game. Not sure I could.

Either way you need to see where you stand in this hand. A nice sized raise ought to accomplish that. If MP2 is on a draw (which seems likely with that call), make him pay for it. If either of them call or plays back at you, well then you are up against trips, and you muck.
Most of the time a nice sized raise picks this one up right here.

EP bets $4, MP1 folds, MP2 calls $4
Whats your play? I raised preflop and now there betting into me w/ that board? hmmmmm....... im inclined to fold fearing trip Ks In 2 of the 3 hands I can remember like this , I folded and @ showdown they showed small PPs for 2 pair KK over whatever and I would have won the hand, but it seems like a pretty loose play to call over the long run.
