yea i know his action is consistant with a flush draw, but the fact is I've seen a lot of other random hands take this line. You now beat two pair and all lower sets (yes odd for him to take this line but still possible). He also could have a random jack that was trigger happy on the flop but was intimidated by the threat of putting in 2 big bets with a weaker hand. There's a good chance button will call but not bet so you don't have to have the best hand as much here. Also, sb might have bet out his flush draw as it does look like he has one.

He cold-called 3 preflop. You're not going to be able to put him on a hand. This river seems like a value bet to me.

Bet. There are 2 players on the river who probably dont fold this huge pot with a weaker hand so you often win 2 bets by betting.
If you can fold to a raise, the play would be even stronger but I think your hand is too strong and the pot too big.
You probably wont see the showdown for free anyways as button is still to act and might bet if checked to.

IMO Button's actions are more consistent with a flush draw than SBs.

It's hard to put SB on a hand. CC 3 pf... if we give him any credit, that would have to be high suited connectors. With a club draw, anything with a Queen or Jack is out. That leaves AKs. A good possibility, given the cap on the flop. Two overs with the nut flush draw.

Button is a little more confusing. Button 3-bet and then just calls everything that comes his way, which also indicates a flush draw. But they can't both have AK of clubs, so I don't know what Button would be 3-betting here that picked up a draw.

It may be weak, but I'm checking this river.
