Yes it worth in most cases. If he checks you must bet and take free SD if allowed. If he raises you on turn then i strongly would considering fold against TAG or loose-passive player. If opponent is LAG i would call down.

The part that sucks about this hand is that they rarely ever bet the river again as a bluff, so on the turn you are calling because you want to showdown, but when they bet the river you are usualy beat more than 1/5 of the time. Yet calling the turn and folding the river just feels weird.

ATM you have 5.5:2 effective odds. It's close.

beting the turn when checked to is terrible poker. It is extrememly rare for a worse hand to call and you could be outplayed with a checkraise. And he cant bluff the river.

I don't think he's commenting on your reply, rather just chose to only answer the question at the end of my post.

I called and called a river bet. He had QdKs and took it down.
