That's a tough one I don't have any idea how to proceed. Probably a bad choice to play kq out of position to a pre flop raise of 7x bb but then again I have been in this position before and I'm usually just praying to check it all the way down or call a small bluff bet on river. Since he's showing even more aggression on the flop you have to expect the worse for your hand or go with your instinct and risk your stack on a just decent hand. I always think what if this guy pushes on the flop and I hit my top pair am I going to call him. Well what are you gonna do punk?

Your preflop line is fine, honestly I don't mind 3b/ft4b, but your flop line is atrocious. Zero point in donking here as he can float you so hard for value or for bluffs. This is a c/c, c/re-eval on turn for sure

Don't donk into people unless you are prepared to call a spazz raise.

With TPGK you can chk/call flop and then depending on turn card either chk/call again or lead out.

There are no draws so with turn chk/call he will know you have TP or MP here though.

Agree with everyone saying c/c on flop unless you have some kind of read on the guy where you think he's very likely to spazz raise a donk bet.
