I screwed this river up. But how bad?

The bet at the end was a value bet/info/blocking bet. I'm not sure how 25NL plays but I don't think he'd raise me unless he had the Kh to do it with.

So how often in 25NL does a blocking bet get raised here without the nuts? Often enough to call if he does it?

Also, if I check this river, and he moves in, should I call it? Or does he only do it with the nuts?

I might bet a little more....your bet looks like a blocker and because of that it might get raised. Since you reraised preflop he has to think it's possible you've got the K /images/graemlins/heart.gif if he doesn't. Your bet is so small though it might convince him to raise. I think 8 is better but this one worked out.
