Hey.
The villain is a bit weak NL100 regular with 58% RFI, 62% fold to 3bet and 13% 4bet BUvsSB but I expect him to fold less since we're deep. What should our general strategy on such a flop with KK or AA look like? Do we want to valuebet the flop or we should prefer checking? Should our strategy change if we don't have K or A heart blocker and prefer betting more often since protection becomes more important?
I would check here a quite balanced range of nuts (QQ, 99, Q9s, sometimes A9s), bluffcatchers that don't need lots of protection (AA, KK, AQ) and c/f stuff like ATo. Doesn't such strategy, which put so many nut hands into checking range, make our betting range vulnerable to aggression?
I suppose the villain will bet the flop with something like that:
Turn is a clear fold.
I'd be really glad to hear any thoughts about playing overpairs on high paired board textures like this.
Thanks in advance!

I'd cbet $9 on flop with KhK and $13.50 with KxKx. Checking seems fine too. I think cbetting this flop and getting raised is a disaster at these ESS.
But why do you want to have two different sizing strategies when our betting range is so thin already? It seems quite unbalanced to me. If you use such strategy, could you tell which other hands would you bet with $9 size and which with $13.5 and why?
