My range here is not very strong, so I can't just barrel all the time and be balanced because of the premium pairs in my range. I have a narrow value range, but I don't actually have that range since I 3bet plenty of other hands that especially on this board do not connect.
And if I think I will get floated a fair amount I think checking the turn with KK is good. He will very often valuecut himself with hands that call against my turn bet, and gives him the opportunity to stab air.
Sure you're not bluffing with much here you should go for less thin value, but KK is overdoing it. If you have a narrow bluffing range you can still value bet the monster end of your range, this isn't a spot where you have no bluffs whatsoever and thus can't go for value

I think bet/calling here is a mistake. AA no spade is toward the bottom of your value range and you have basically 0% equity vs his value range.
I really don't see why a flush or set is a small portion of his range, and I also don't really see why you expect KxQs to check/shove this turn when he has to figure he's rarely ahead of your calling range. I think most regs are c/cing this turn with KxQs, happy to see a river with what may be the best hand, and if not, likely has outs to improve.
Maybe vs a fish bet/call and hope for the best, but if he's a reg this seems really optimistic.
Bet/folding > Bet/calling
I actually agree with this and think we made a mistake. My standard is normally to bet/fold here
