$100 NLHE Full Ring: Live, KK gets raised otf

This was a hand that my friend played. I have been arguing that he played it badly, whilst he argues he was ahead of villains range.

This is all the info he has given me. Villain is loose aggressive, I have played with him before and noticed he's quite a poor player but didnt think he was as aggressive as my friend makes out.

Stacks are: Hero £135, villain covers with £350ish.

Hero is SB, villain is BB.

Two limpers, Hero has KK and raises to £5, three calls.

Flop: 5 6 Q (two clubs) Pot = £20

Hero bets £8, villain raises to £21, two folds, Hero calls.

Turn: 5 6 Q 4 (red 4) Pot = £62

Hero bets £30, villain shoves for £115, Hero calls.

I dont know whether he won the hand, my immediate advice was check the turn, betting folds out his air hands and makes it tough to call a raise. Fold to the turn raise as played.

Yeah your friend is a noob lol that line is awful

Yeh don't like the line at all.

If he knows villain is bad lag and is behind a ton here (which is very common), gii otf...get called by a bunch of q's and flush draws.

Raise more pre.
3bet flop.

My mate wont stop arguing his side. He says that by 3 betting we fold out queens. Just cant get through to him, but he said he doesnt want to get it in on the flop vs a draw. So I rest my case, I told him to stop playing stakes where hes scared of making good plays that are high variance.

What is the best way to for the hero the play the kings here?

Raise more preflop. $7-10 min. You dont want to see a 4 handed flop w/ kk. Then he should have 3 bet to get it ai otf. Especially if villain is lag player. If you have a tag player rr'ing you otf, your probably just gonna have to call down or even muck since we've played so bad preflop.

Play is fine if the guy is super apeshit and a bad lag. Most people over-estimate how aggressive people are though so it's likely the play is bad.
