you should bet the turn much more than 28, bet at least 50. for river, when villain checks, value bet/shove.

Why is his turn bet not enough? Seems like betting at least 50, with that 4 straight on the board, the only hand that's calling you has you at least the straight.

And why value bet/shove the river? I just don't see anyone w/o an A calling you there. Seems like one of those times that 95% of the time you either gain nothing from it, worse hands fold, an A calls you, but if someone is playing a boat tricky they'll beat you.

Turn is way ugly, I make it $50ish, you are giving every hand he could possibly have great odds to draw out on you. Call push on turn and hope he doesn't have AKd.

As played check behind. Seems weak but I don't see a worse hand calling anything on the river.

Making a river bet seems like a zero play to me. Most kings will also connect their kicker to this board. I like the check behind here.
