If he's capable of calling w/ 2nd pair or a weak king to a bet on the turn I like betting it.

His line looks like a weak king/Qx or a tard trying to slow play a monster.

I call the river because there's $7.35 in the pot and you have to call $2 to win it. You might lose to K9 here (I think KT+ bet the turn) or 2 pair but often enough you'll see Qx or a worse king.

I'd call. Your check on the turn makes it look like you were c-betting the flop and then you gave up. He could have a Q or a smaller pocket pair.

I'm wondering if you shouldn't be betting the turn since you then have top pair (albeit crappy kicker) and a flush draw.
