I probobly would have raised the river, the only hand I really fear is TT

BB could easily have KT here, but what can you do when you have a royal draw vs. potential battle of the boats with your ten putting yet another pair on the board? The other thing to consider is that depending on where you are playing, you may be drawing to a sizeable jackpot. (I don't think party has one, but its something to keep in mind). Anyway, you've got to call one on the river with the nut flush just in case it was a different AJ or J9 and AK or something.

FWIW, I'd have played it the same. With all the action coming from the blinds, there's better chance of a KT,KQ, or even TT, QQ then you might normaly fear. Can't fold the nut flush, so I have to call it down. Don't like the caps, but there's a real good chance that you're just facing a couple of Kxs, another AJ or even a J9 or QT.
