Anything screwed up with my play here? Check behind on the river? He could'a picked up 2 pair and called me I thought or could've called even with top pair-it's the weekend.

why are u betting so big, hes not gunna give u any information if it looks like ur just gunna hand him the pot on every street. bet and look for a raise, and definatly dont go brezerk on the river

[Allinlife]

like the flop raise
turn bet..I'd make it 12 but what gives
river bet 30# at least...Kx calls you, 2 pairs call you too often to miss this value bet.

result: thank MP2 for being such a passive player, and move on.
