How to play second set on dry flop?

Blinds: $0.25/$0.50 (6 Players) BN: $49.75
SB: $50.00
BB: $84.12
UTG: $51.00 (Hero)
MP: $116.35
CO: $161.88
SB is an aggressive reg
Preflop ($0.75) Hero is UTG with 9 K K J
Hero raises to $1.75, 3 folds, SB calls $1.50, BB calls $1.25
Flop ($5.25) A 5 K
SB checks, BB bets $2.50, Hero calls $2.50, SB raises to $9.00, BB folds, Hero calls $6.50
Usually I fold second set on this spot, but BB donked small and my call looks kinda weak, If I were him I might think its a good spot to bluff raise with Axxx type of hand and wrap is definitely possible, so I called
Turn ($25.75) A 5 K T
SB checks, Hero bets $17.00, SB raises to $39.25 and is all in, Hero calls $22.25
by checking he is representing AA or maybe weak Axxx, I bet to get showdown on blank river but the guy shoved
I'm getting just a right price against strt, but if he has AAQ type of hand I'm almost drawing dead


How do u guys play this hand?

Don't really get the point of betting turn when you have the nutgutter and :Kh in your hand as well, maybe you can explain your reasoning for doing so, especially for a sizing this big.

It was actually a legit question, I still can be missing something. But yeah the turnplay here was pretty crucial for the hand.

call/call, check back, call almost any river.

Probably calling also. He can have 55 with A or K blocker and is probably x/c rivers with this portion. His flop x/r range may have some single suited or even no suits QJTx hands since he didn't 3bet pre but I don't think this line is particularly good in a texture which he has no fold equity.

If BB is a weaker player there is more incentive for SB to call poor AAxx hands pre but I guess you are overfolding too much if you give up turn in a spot that he expects you to reopen the flop betting action with AAxx hands and maybe some KKxx hands so he can value bet worse.

Dry flop?? Just cuz no FD? There's still two wraps out there. Also i think based off of the flop line...you could give him Aces up hands.. Esp. aces up with gutshot.

In position i love the flop flat, disguises your hand and forces him to continue all bluffs blank turn (6-9's)

Turn is a check back with plan to call off most sizings and value bet to a river check aimed at A5.
