This hand history looks a bit weird. I'm going to assume MP is the BB.

I think you can check quite frequently on a flop like this based on reads. KK-AA don't have much to protect against. As played you shouldn't be shoving the turn. The idea is to let the opponent keep his air/semibluffs in with poor equity. Whereas if he calls the turn you're pretty much always crushed.

He was actually the small blind, I think it was the way the table broke to the FT...

Based on the above Jae, would you have flatted turn and called river?

Thanks

If he is the small blind then I like betting this hand always on the flop. Sizing you chose is fine. Turn I would just call, we want to keep villains bluffs in here and we have a strong hand that isn't super vulnerable. I would also be calling river here vs a shove.
