raise more pf (1.7 at least). check behind on a flop this dry. is ok. on the turn def check behind or put him all in. on the river call

Re-raise more preflop. I would probably check behind on the flop because there's not really any draws and it's quite likely that another of them has you beat.

As played on flop, your turn bet is horrible. With 2 K's on the board, no-one will call with a Jx or something like TT-33. Your betsize sucks too, villain has only 6.55 left and the pot is 9.65. If you bet there it has to be all-in.

River is quite close, but you're getting so good odds that calling should be fine, hoping that villain is a bluffhappy retard or whatever. But this smells a lot like a K or slowplayed AA/JJ.

ty, you pretty much said the exact same thing as i did, but in a way that made me realize that i dont explain myself enough when i post here. your post is infinitely more helpful than mine and i need to stop writing what i would do and start writing why i would do it.

He is slowplaying you. I think that here you should bet more on the flop and give up when called. Do NOT bet the turn.

I agree with your second statement, but I too, like a nice flop check. You are getting 0 value here and well, there are a few turns you like.

You are right, on that flop we dont beat much and certainly cant go three streets of value, nor do we have any FE. Check is best.
