I think Gabe was value-betting the river with his KK. It was an interesting bet though because it was likely a bad value bet but turned out with the nice result of the fold.

I don't get value bet at all from that. I think he was taking advantage of the fact that people assume he is playing scared and is only going to bet strong hands at this point. He also knows that MM knows that gabe knows what MM's calling range is here. I think he knows MM has an Ace.

Well it isn't super easy to put MM on an ace since MM checked behind on the turn. Of course MM's check with his weak ace with the 3-flush up was understandable, but still, I think his action indicated that he had a J much more than he had an A.

My read on the hand was that Gabe thought MM had a hand like QJ or KJ, and might decide to call Gabe's river bet.
