KK with big pot to start flop
KK is my 10th biggest loser after the first 81 times at 50nl, and these were some of the trickier pots. Please help. I am TAG in all these pots if it makes a difference.

no stats, sorta new to table...my only read is based on one hand which CO played loose-passive on (called my 4bb pfr w/ KQ, called down on Q T 9 two-toned flop to 3/4 pot bets on flop/turn, checked behind on river).

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with K , K . SB posts a blind of $0.25.
1 fold, UTG+1 calls $0.50, 1 fold, MP2 calls $0.50, Hero raises to $3, CO calls $3, 1 fold, SB (poster) calls $2.75, 1 fold, UTG+1 calls $2.50, MP2 calls $2.50.
Flop: ($15.50) 7 , Q , Q (5 players)
SB checks, UTG+1 checks, MP2 checks, Hero bets $8, CO calls $8, SB folds, UTG+1 folds, MP2 folds.
Ugly flop with so many in the pot...a WA/WB except with a flush draw mixed in. I bet 1/2 pot to keep the pot somewhat small and give sort of bad odds but not push away all worse hands.
Turn: ($31.50) 5 (2 players)
Hero checks, CO bets $8, Hero calls $8.
I figured leading anything 1/2 pot or above would pot commit me if he calls. But, his small bet didn't tell me much since I saw him underplay his hand earlier and he could also be on a worse pair.
River: ($47.50) 3 (2 players)
Hero ??
Block bet around $10?

Villain is 16/8 after 38 hands. I actually considered folding pre flop after a lot of AA vs KK lately, but didn't have a good enough read. I think I sould've just pushed pre flop. Does anyone like my pre flop call?

Fold, right? I'm now only really beating a bluff since I doubt QQ would do this.

Ok he called off $8 pre flop so I decided I'm probably playing for stacks against a likely TT+. I might've been tilting with the flop overbet...but what's your line? Is there any way you are not all in at some point post flop?
