    At this level I would just put him all in on the river myself rather than check raising.

    But other than that it's spot on.

    i lost the guy had KJ xD lol, but im glad you guys have agreed that i played it well, except the check raise at the end

    played fine i'd shove river also

    UL he shows up with KJ cooler

    Yeah played well except the river, by checking you could miss out on alot of value but unlucky that he had KJ. Personally I was thinking you could bet again on the turn but betters players above have not said this so I'd go with them. I just think the number of hands from his range where he has a K there are pretty small. When you bet like that on the flop, the only thing he calls with that involves a king is KK (which I ignore because of flat call pre), K9 and KJ, which it turns out he had but yeah I think you could get called by worse on the turn.

    I prob bet the turn for value, esp oop readless.

    as played I like the river c/r

    You played it fine. Any set would likely raise you on the flop. Your opponent's hand looks like a king or a jack. I'm not sure about the c/r on the river though either. On the one hand a check might induce a bet from a bare king or a busted flush draw that would just flat call a value bet or fold to a jam. However he only has £1.12 left and the pot is £2.06. He's not going to shove on the end as a bluff (or he shouldn't)

    If he has a full stack at the beginning of the hand then he would have £3.20 left at the river. In this instance a check raise might get his whole stack, while a value bet would only get raised by a full house. Pay attention to your opponent's stack from the very start of the hand. You have four streets of betting and you want their whole stack in the middle by the end of the hand

    Dont check river. SET HIM IN!

    King Jack is a bit of a worry but you could say that about any hand. Just think about how many other hands you are beating. Got to be a money making shove over time.
