I think every street is bettable. I think the check on the turn pretty much lets you know you have the best hand

Re: Can you find a bet on any street here?
 

I'd probably bet-fold the turn and hope he capped AQs. I can't think of a hand that's worth capping but not worth continuation-betting.

I think you can bet the turn. Not many players will check a hand that can beat you twice. Really strange that he never bet though. What'd he have, AQ?

Nor could I.

Actually, I figured there are almost no hands I could beat here. He was not a maniac, and pre-flop caps, especially out of position, by non-maniacs in this game usually mean exactly what they are supposed to mean. And if he were aggressive enough to cap a hand I can still beat after that flop, why is he not trying to take the pot down? He either has a huge hand, or a hand he is afraid to bet but still beats me (like QQ), but will probably call down. Turned out he had KK.

Nice.

Re: Can you find a bet on any street here?
 

Sounds like he may be used to playing no limit or something.

I would have bet on the flop, and folded to a raise. If he just called the raise, I would have check/folded from there.

Your read of him as a solid player was not a part of your original post. assuming "Average skill" means that there are a few hands you can beat (AQ, AJ being the most predominant).

For the record, that was the most butchered KK hand I've seen in awhile.

I don't think there is a specific type of "average skill" player who you can say this about. If he is solid or passive, he will shut down with those hands when he gets 3-bet. If he is aggressive enough to cap those, he is going to lead the flop no matter what falls. His preflop cap and flop check were inconsistent and suspicious.

Agreed.
