$30 would be a nice bet but anything more I can't really dislike very much, they will fold a lot to a push that a big raise would be +EV imo.

Fold , that I dislike very much.

I'd 3bet that flop a crapload of the time I think... If I'm calling the flop I'm poooooshing the turn...

(1) WTF are you doing playing 6-max with no reads?

(2) WTF are you doing underbetting the pot on the flop? You have a solid hand but it's massively under-repped. At 6-max your weak bet on a coordinated board says "steal the pot from me." The only reason to make the bet that weak is to encourage someone to try to steal so you can smack them down. So as played you have to go all the way, since you checked the turn it's time to CRAI. I'd prefer a full pot flop bet on the flop because although KK is nice and all, if someone flopped a bigger hand than I have I'd like them to tell me about it so I can avoid losing my stack.

I think this is a fold on the turn. I prefer 3betting the flop but not necessarily all in.

I hate pushing the turn, because I cannot think of any stronger hands that fold to that move and his action seems to indicate he's not weak. About the only hand we beat is QQ there.

I'm completely confused now. Why are the great players on here saying shove the turn. One thing I've read on here is to become a good player you need to be able to fold over Ps to be successful. At which point do you fold over Ps in a hand if not in this situation. He is repping a big hand here. Please explain why the check shove is good on the turn. I see calling the flop to reevaluate the turn but he showed strength on the turn. NL50 players are not horrible.

I assume a "Ps" means overpair? I'm not a big fan of folding overpairs much in 6 max, especially to someone who raises the flop like that. That's a set like never. This is 1010 a lot of the time in my opinion. That or you may have just gotten set-turned, which sucks but reload and try again.
