He only has to call $6 to see the raise. Which gives him 6:22 or 1:3.7 so he has to win 1/4.7 or 21% of the time to break even. Someone correct me if im wrong please.

Nonono I meant raising 10 dollars not raising 6 TO 10 dollars. So yeah, I think it would be different.

With regards to shoving, I felt that by not shoving (I only left myself like 4 dollars behind after my raise) it would look to my opponent that I really wanted at least a call here. Maybe I'm overcomplicating things but I felt this raise would appear less like a possible bluff to him, thus more likely to fold.

Anyway he typed in chat "44 is good" and folded so I'm pretty happy with how it worked out.

Ah well in that case he has to call $10 into a $32.85 pot. 10:32.85 --> 1:3.285 or 1/4.285 ~23%. So his odds aren't that much worse. I think I'd fold rather than shoot again. I think if I was going to bluff I'd raise him on the flop thinking that a weak king will fold, and if he calls then you know you are behind.

Well I still "know I'm behind" with how i played it. But he did narrow his hand range significantly to something really weak with how he played it. Few winning TAGs at NL25 make this call with just a king (against other straightforward TAGs)unless they are feeling very spewy. At least that's what I think.

meh prob looks more like a flush if you checked turn but OTOH does anyone ever make that river bet with a hand that calls a raise?

I mean that would be a pretty sick value bet with like a small PP.
most likely TP ok kicker and like 88-TT are his range here and if you push he will fold most times IMO.
