just been reading the article - on the flop: when to play passively.....
there is an interesting hand:
Stacks & Stats
UTG ($25)
UTG+1 ($25) (16/11/3.3/24/488) [VPIP/PFR/AF/WTS/Hands]
UTG+2 ($25)

CO ($25) (8/5/1.8/18/371) [VPIP/PFR/AF/WTS/Hands]
BU ($25) (15/12/2.1/23/800) [VPIP/PFR/AF/WTS/Hands]
SB ($25)
BB ($25) (12/9/2.6/21/333) [VPIP/PFR/AF/WTS/Hands]
Pre-flop: Hero is MP3 with K :spade:, K 
1 fold, UTG+1 raises to $1.00, 3 folds, Hero raises to $3.25, 4 folds, UTG+1 calls $3.25
Flop: ($6.85) A :diamond:, 7 :diamond:, 4 (2 players)
UTG+1 checks, Hero checks
it says that we didn't want the UTG TAG to bet out and call our raise and then an ace to fall on the flop. the line is therefore check behind for bluff induce. i guess my 2 questions are
1) what do we do if UTG donks here? KK is definitely too strong to fold right, but at the same time what the hell is he donking with? so since KK is too strong to fold, we could consider a raise but surely this isolates? similarly if we just call then we face exactly the same situation on the turn unless we hit our 2 outer.
2) if we are first to act OOP (preflop we raise and are simply called), we obviously cbet but what do we do if we are raised? and what do we do on the turn if we are called?
this is one of those awkward situations where i find it hard to play simply because hands like KK are so hard to lay down, especially for me as a noob, but this is also problematic since i do not know when it is correct to lay a hand like this down. bet/fold is apparently turning the hand into a bluff but if opponent does raise, then what weaker hand is he raising with? i normally would choose bet/fold with KK, so is this correct?
