    Readless a fold is fine.

    A lot depends on their 3 bet frequency.
    If they 3 bet quite tight, the king on the board means some of the hands that weren't beating you preflop, are now (AK, KQ), and there aren't too many hands you are beating.

    You've got to figure they will fire the river, therefore you need to be reasonably sure that you are good often enough, as calling turn, folding river is giving money away.

    You'r line is fine v a tight 3-bettor, calling the flop is ok if villain tends C-bet often and barrels the turn a small% of the time, so then you probably have SD value.

    I prefer to 4-bet these spots tbh, you'r oop facing 3-bet from Button, esp v a aggro player who would make it tough for me throughout the streets. Take note on his bet sizing! his bets looks small if he had a K with the flush out there? As played readless i fold ~its close mind. (but im a huge nit from nitsville)
