I raised PF with AhJh from MP and got a call from the SB.

Flop: K-x-x two spades

Check, bet, call.

Turn: Qc

Check, bet, call.

River: Ts

Check...

Is there value in betting here? Could get overcalls from two pair, top pair, smaller straight, etc....

Make it the Qs and you have a somewhat interesting discussion. This river is ALWAYS a bet.

Of course there's value in a bet.

When you bet and he calls what percentage of the time do you think you're winning? I'll guess about 98+.

If he check-raises you're going to have to play poker, but checking behind with the nut straight in a heads up pot because the flush draw gets there is no good.
