[MICRO] Can I find the fold button here with KK ?

[MICRO] Can I find the fold button here with KK ?

No reads on villain apart for PT4 stats.
After villain is calling my 3bet I put him on TT-QQ,AQs-AK I guess he's 4betting AA, KK pretty easily so it's not the case here.
When he is raising my flop c-bet (what about the sizing here ?) I instantly think about QQ, but I'm hoping for AQ , JJ or KK maybe.....
AK of clubs's also a hand I can't fold to....

Thinking about my maybe too small c-bet size on the flop, I decide to call with the "smells like a set" feeling....

Donkey call my side , or is it a never fold situation-cooler, situation ?

Not a good flop size. You want to bet smaller hope fish dose something dumb and reg calls with JJ/TT
There is no folding either way.

He can't have AcKc cos we're blocking it


Yeah, you're right, I guess there no folding there...
Here is a similar hand I've played today....

It looks like I can't help downsizing my bets....

But speaking about folding a set, I know I can do it 😃 Actually I'm still a little bit tilted about this fold....
Unfortunately I misclicked the Pre Flop Raise, didn't notice the first raise, and when I clicked raise, I min 3bet'd Villain's bet.... :(

I think I'm more in the 20-24bb range on the flop to widen Villain's range, but this is fine. Especially with the K
