No reason to fear anything right? Call the River raise?

I think that one means you're cooked. Unless you have a history of folding river raises.

I probably would have check/called. But since you bet, yeah, call it.

KO

Definitely fold to the river raise. Check/fold or check/call the river IMO, leaning toward check/fold.

i don't get why we didn't raise that turn unless we feared the flush and then take that line into the river and bet or why we would consider calling based on the line that was taken.

Nothing to fear on the TURN! RAISE THE TURN!!! You're afraid to put in two bets on the turn when you are likely ahead, but are going to put in two on the river when you're behind?
