200/400 hand vs. sbrubgy 6 handed

[AB_illusive]

This bet looks more to me like he's trying to get paid by 9x, which decided to get semifancy on the flop. Had the river blanked, meaning 5-7 and <5 no diamonds, I'd be much more inclined to call. After all, there's not much difference in calling this size of bet with Kx or a normal VB, whereas 9x snapcalls both. Without knowing Sbrubgy at all, I would think he knows this.

Oh and furthermore, given your flopaction, I don't think betting turn is a good idea holding Kx against a tricky player as he is. Then I'd much rahter check behind and valueraise river.
