Preflop sizing and the flop check with KK are both defensible at this depth; the line is structurally sound up to the first flop action.

Flop Analysis

Flop comes Qh 9d 3s in a 3-way pot with an SPR just under 3, and the summary explicitly treats us as not being the preflop aggressor. In a deep, multiway 3-bet pot, the non-aggressor should be careful about auto-stabbing; ranges are tighter, there’s still an opponent behind, and the preflop raiser (per constraints, not us) is the one whose c-bet frequency shapes the street. Checking here with KK is a solid way to keep our range protected and avoid building a huge pot before we see how the bettor behind responds. With top overpair and no immediate nuttiness on the board, we can comfortably check, let the action develop, and then react to sizing and participation rather than leading into two players.
