Re: pocket kings-played poorly?

I raised on the flop to gain information...

Why? You probably have the best hand.
Betting for information is a concept that should be used rarely. You never do it JUST to get information. I mean if you have 32o in the BB you can bet a flop of AJK to get information, but that would be pretty dumb. You have to do it in conjunction with other reasons.
Here, you correctly raised the flop, but you apparently did it for the wrong reasons. This is a raise for value (mostly).

I figured the only hands that would call my river bet were hands that beat mine.

You mean like J6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]? Seriously, you are good enough often enough here to value bet this river. If the flush draw came after a 2 flush flop I might feel differently.
