This is what I was thinking too. I have good equity in the pot, but poor implied odds, so check/raising A/I to commit myself is best. If I had better implied odds, I think check/calling would be better. My implied odds are poor because if I do make a flush on the river, my hand is going to be quite transparent and villain probably won't pay off much (unless he has the As, which is bad for obvious reasons).

I check/raised A/I.

I like your analysis and agree with your bet. The Ks gives you very little because there are few suited hands that should be calling your raise in this position that do not include the As. QJ or JTs are, in my opinioak to be playing in a very small field.

Just to add that if villian checks through, I think I'm betting river 1/2 the pot just about every time no matter what comes.
