Default River play.

FW 20/40

Game is currently 7 handed. Villain has been at table for maybe 2 orbits and is a young asian kid, possibly looking back now a 2+2er.

Hero is in 2nd position with KJ.

Hero opens. Folds to villain in BB who 3 bets. Heads up.

Flop is K92

Check, check

Turn is a 2

Check, I bet, call.

River is useless, no flush or straight.

Check, I bet again, villain raises...

Action?

Are you suggesting that maybe you should have folded? This is an easy call. You've underrepresented your hand here, so villain could be making this play with a wide range. I think we need to ask ourselves "What hand could we have that checks the flop and that villain would expect us to pay off with?"

I think it's more likely he's taking a shot at you than you're beat.

While we're at it, I think you should have bet the flop, too.

I don't see what beats you unless BB is horrible, which is likely. Maybe he spiked x to his pp on the river?

I think you have to call here. Villians line is just so bizarre. Nothing here makes sense at all. C/c on the turn with something that already beats you intending a river sexy just doesn't add up, especially after you checked the flop.

BTW, bet that flop.

His flop check makes 0 sense with any conceivable hand with the exception fo maybe a flopped set which he should still bet. This is just too retarded to be a bluff but I call anyway. Holla

Why did you check the flop? This seems like a much easier hand to play if you bet out here. As played I can't see not calling the river, he can't put you on a good K the way you played it.

did you check the flop so that you could underrep your hand and induce a bluff on a big street? if so your plan worked perfectly.
