Pocket pair, 3 kings on flop...

I figured that the opponent was deep enough to call as a set mine here. Would normally fold after missing the flop, but I am not losing to much here. No major reads on opponent, but he hasn't been raising 5x pre very often.

What do I do here?

If I flat call, I presume I have to continue calling if he bets the turn and river (assuming the turn and river aren't scare cards like A or Q, or another K which would forfeit my hand)?

Looking back, I think a re-raise might have told me where I was (preparing to fold if he re-raises/shoves)... but then how do I play the turn and river if he calls? (Fold to any subsequent bets perhaps?)

Or should I have donk bet on the flop?

    I think I fold here simply because you're already losing to any PP other than 2's & there's very few cards you're gonna like on the turn or river.

    Yeah I think I fold too. There is a decent chance your winning on the flop but you will definitely hate the turn and river and you will hate calling as bets get bigger and bigger on later streets.

    call once only, he could be betting anything here - force him to fire again

    fold imo, you can call but his range is strongish here and we have no idea how likely he is to keep barrelling without a pair

    Don't see how we weak fold a house on the flop to a c bet when he could fire ace high
    What's he c-betting here and why, love to see a c/r from you here "_) rep a big house BUT this would heavily depend if oppo is capable of folding a small-mid house - very risky at this level
    oppo probably has a pair with the open, depends how big it is and why is he betting it :S
    Will he lay down 10's

    Like Gran says depends if he barrels ace high
