AKo hand(also posted in micro-limit)
 
Table is typical. SB limps with a lot of suited junk and BB has been standard and weak. Just wanted to know some other lines or ideas on this hand. Thanks in advance

I think this is an easy river bet.

You checked behind on the turn, why would any hand that beats you not bet this river? If that K didn't hit you, then you would have checked behind and they get nothing. There was no sign of resistance on the flop. I think you have the best hand about 90%+ of the time.

Bet the turn with the intention of taking the free showdown if you don't improve. If the river is a blank and UTG bets then you are in the uncomfortable position of wondering if he simply bet because it's obvious you missed your overcards. Leave the wondering what to do to your opponents.

Super easy river bet for the reasons easypete mentions.
