What kind of player is the button?

I think I would check/call the river

I would fold pf. Since you didn't, I think the rest of the line is standard. I think that you see AK UI here a lot.

I don't open K8o in the CO without a read that button is super tight. Then again, I don't play as many hands as others. Is this standard for people?

I take you lead the flop hoping that button would raise out the BB? Also, unless you have a note that button will call the river w/A-high, I think a c/c is better than a river bet.

it's not standard for me to open K8o from the CO. Just one of those things i do at the right table.

This is extremely standard. You have to bet the river.

I never raise K8 from CO preflop
Rest of hand looks fine, checking river would be weak

I would only check the river if I thought he would bet as a bluff more than he would call with a worse hand.

Does that mean you have info on button's play? Has he been folding a whole bunch PF?
