Hi, I am thinking about my AA, I folded as CutOff, I entered the cash game table ($0,01/0,02 USD) only 10 hands before

Here's the history
all players folded to me, I raise to 3xBB, BB reraises to 5xBB, I reraised to 12xBB, BB calls
Flop:Kd3d8c
I opened with small bet not to loose him right now, 5xBB, giving him a KX, maybe in diamonds
he calls
Turn: Kh
I check, thinking again of having him the KX, he bets small with 5xBB, I call
River: 6s
I check again, now he raises to half the pot,
After a moment of thinking I fold

Was my play right in these situation or should I've been more aggressive after seeing the flop?
Maybe I was only seeing monsters where no were...
how would you have been playing these hand?

If you are passive you call, if you are agressive you fold. Being agressive is usually easier with good hand.

so I'd have to be more aggressive, after the flop and after the river?

Yeah hard to tell how he is after only ten hands, but here's my take:

Preflop you player fine with the double reraise to get added value from the hand, post flop given that there was a K and with his preflop play I would argue he's on AKs, AKo or KJs+ (most likely diamonds) but I can't really see him playing KK so passive especially since he knows you have something you really like. Turn card is what you really don't want to see because if he does have the Kx he know could have anything from trips to four of a kind if we think he's slowing playing KK. I would have thrown out a small bet on the turn though simply because if he doesn't have the king but has AJ or AQ or QQ or something along those lines thinking you have the king you still have some leverage to make a play on the river, but check calling here imo shows him you don't have a king and now even if he doesn't either by raising he effectively can bluff any Kx hand he wants now. I'm not saying he is bluffing, I really think he does have Kx, but it is something that could happen from checking when monster hands could be involved. But I think the river check-fold is good, he showed power all through the hand and isn't letting up so assuming Kx he has you beat, I would probably have folded here to without more info on him.

Just goes to show you that AA is never a guaranteed win, but it really is a rough hand.

I think you should have been more aggressive after the flop, since he raised on your raise and then evened the 12bb raise, that meant that he had a good hand maybe as good as yours or an AK or a big pair, when leaving the K on the flop Ubieras bet enough to know if he had a K or if he had a lower pair.

AK maybe?

I also think he may have been on AK the whole time..then in turn giving him trip Ks..There is only 2 ways of playing that either what you did until the river..or going all in post flop..with AA..so that way maybe he didn't catch something he was chasing. However, if he has AK that gives him top pair with top kicker..he's definitely calling your all in..so I think it was been just to play it modestly so you didn't lose ll your chips.

It's rough to let it go but I would put him on AK too. Not saying I play like this but I suppose the turn would have been the time to raise and see if he goes all in.
