PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t400 (9 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

I'm not sure I like river play here. Check behind?
Big stack has been limping almost every hand and will bet with piece of the board. Has only shown down big hands though.

Flop play was iffy too? Like the call?

Obviously, the only hands you are worried about here are JJ-KK. It's certainly possible that he would limp with these hands trying to trap. But I'd be surprised if he had those hands with the amount he bet on the flop. With a very straight draw heavy flop you'd think he'd lead out for more or check raise. So, I think you've got the best hand. The question is how much can you bet on the river and get called by a second best hand.

Making a big bet on the river sometimes works as it can be interpreted as a bluff on a missed draw. But I don't think the hand has played out that way. With a pair on the board he's not going to call such a big bet without a poorly played full house. I think something in the neighborhood of T2000 is callable if he has trips or two pair.

i like to fast play a flopped nut straight like this b/c a) if he has 2 pair or the dummy straight it is quite unlikely he is getting away from his hand, b) it actually disguises your hand b/c many players WOULD slowplay your hand, and c) a good number of cards can come off on the turn/river that kill your action.

i would bet roughly 2/3 of the pot on the river (given your flop/turn play), it may look like a busted draw of some sort and may garner a loose call. checking behind is out of the question b/c there is no reason to belive that you are behind.
