KK vs. resistance postflop, ace comes OTT

Could do with knowing if this fold is the right move? Vs. the resistance to my re-raise then the donk bet I figured they had trip fours, a suited ace, AJ, or a set of fives. I don't think there's many bluffs here but maybe I'm wrong given it's 2NL and people think that an ace is the perfect card to bluff on?

Very new to it after a long 5 year break, so starting from scratch!

PokerStars - $0.02 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players

SB: 98.5 BB
BB: 19.5 BB
UTG: 101.5 BB
Hero (MP): 123 BB
CO: 172.5 BB
BTN: 391 BB

Villain VPIP 41, PFR 19, AF 1.00 (over just 27 hands)

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has K♥ K♣

fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, fold, BTN calls 3 BB, SB calls 2.5 BB, fold

Flop: (10 BB, 3 players) 4♦ 4♥ J♥
SB bets 5 BB, Hero raises to 18 BB, fold, SB calls 13 BB

Turn: (46 BB, 2 players) A♦
SB bets 22.5 BB, fold

I think the flop raise is ok. After villain's call and turn donkbet, I don't think KK is good enough and I would fold as well.

You are not wrong. At NL2 it is exactly the opposite. People dont try to interpret something because they dont think in ranges. At least not often enough and definitely not fish 41/19 (27 hands is enough to say it is a fish). They just play their cards and if they bluff they do it just because the want to.

So on the flop raise is good, much better than just calling because you put BU under pressure with possible flush draws. If BU stayed in the game I would be very cautious. I put BB on flush draws.

BU folded and the turn is an action killer for you. Because fish either has an ace (they play all of them from all positions) or is afraid of it. When BB leads half a pot it is a cry fold for me. I can imagine he had any A♥: on the flop because they chase even backdoors and dont want to fold aces, at least on the flop.

Well played imo.

Viliain looks fishy, but sample is small. He easily can have 4x, so fold OTT.
