NL25 FR Zoom: KK raised on low flop

BN: $31.29 (Hero)
SB: $25.10
BB: $29.02
UTG: $46.62
UTG1: $24.06
UTG2: $67.04
LJ: $20.85
HJ: $25.91
CO: $23.65
Villain is tagish reg 15/12 AF 2 AFq 40
8% 3b vs steal
79% fold bb to steal
16% raise flop cbet

He sees me as aggro, he caught me in a couple spots when I was bluffing and he had nuts.
Preflop ($0.35) (9 Players)
Hero was dealt K K
UTG folds, UTG1 folds, UTG2 folds, LJ folds, HJ folds, CO folds, Hero raises to $0.75, SB folds, BB calls $0.50
Flop ($1.60) 8 4 7 (2 Players)
BB checks, Hero bets $1, BB raises to $3, Hero calls $2
I think he folds 44 pf and don't have many low cards because of his high fold to steal. So I think he has a lot of air in his range, just abusing the fact that this a tough board to fight a raise. So I decided to call to let him keep firing, because 3betting he could jam his good hands and fold his air. But baybe I should have used my image to just 3b/call hoping he would spew.
Turn ($7.60) 8 4 7 A (2 Players)
BB bets $4.80, Hero calls $4.80
The value of my hand decrease a lot with an ace on the board, but it's a card that he will be continuing to fire if he has nothing.
River ($17.20) 8 4 7 A 2 (2 Players)
BB bets $10.30
He bet pretty fast, so I thought I was beat. But I don't want to change my plan. Will the turn call be bad if a fold here? This is the perfect blank, if I am not happy about calling here, I will be uncomfortable in all rivers.

I am not sure about what to do on the river. Thoughts?


Thank you!

Based on what I read, he is a she, I mean a nun, so I think you should fold on flop. Your hand blocks some of her FD combos, I dislike the idea of flatting the CR on flop to fold to a bomb on a brick turn card against this opponent because I see her bombing turn like always. And if you decided on a soul read to call down all the way, then, hey it's your money, but I think it's a losing play. Contrary to your belief, I think she would flat all three PP on BB because she knows you are very aggressive postflop which means her set mine value increases even against a range that shouldn't give action to the aggression we are witnessing from this nun.

Thank you for the answer CC!

15/12 is a standard reg in fullring and 16% raise flop cbet is not low. So I am not sure if he is she. Maybe a shemale?

If he/she is always bombing the turn, he will put some money in bad, because with a 16% cr range, he probably has a lot of draws that lose value with only one street to come.

Isn't folding on the flop too weak?

I think you should play a solid straight forward game at these stakes and not level yourself too much. If your image is aggro they won`t be making lighter 3bets for value and thiner value bets but instead they`ll be waiting for strong hands like sets to stack you off.

V has some tight stats so I doubt that he`s playing a hand like 9Ts or an over pair - which he decided to slowplay pre - this way. With his stats and the fact that this is a zoom game I think that his strategy is mostly floping sets and play them aggresively so I`m probably folding here on the flop.

Thank you plop!

I really try to keep things simple, that's why I would usually 3b/call in a spot like this. But this time I tried to explore villains high raise cbet stat.

It's hard for me to fold in position one of the best hands in my range when villain can have so many draws.
