checking thru the turn and betting this river?
 

My only read is that villain earlier in the game 3-bet KJo from bb to a MP1 open raiser.

seems fine. when you check through the turn i cant imagine him not betting the river with KQ/KJ, so it really looks like JJ/TT/99 and he will often pay off with those.

Bet when checked to on the turn.

I love this response. The poster may be correct, but he doesn't help either me or himself? Maybe if you explain your position, you'll solidify your own poker theory and help a fellow poster in the process. Or maybe you'll think of something you never considered before.

He checked, it's not very likely we are behind. He may call a bet, so we bet.

Yes, I understand we aren't giving up much by checking it through, but I think he'll call down with worse hands.

You are right, my response was bad.
