If your hand was AK this would have been nice action.

K4 isn't exactly what I want when I start betting at small pots in large fields.

But g00t aggression.

If you are gonna play, you gotta bet those kings on the flop... at least you can get away cheap vs major aggression.

Checking out of position on the flop is a good play if the turn is meaningless. The assumption is that better hands will bet and a check through is the green light to throw some bets out there.

The turn was meaningless and he turned on the aggression. I think the river is where he went a bit overboard. Not many beaten hands are calling a the pot on the river, some better hands are folding though.

If it was 3 players to the flop, betting the kings is almost a no brainer.
