Bit of a relief that I know the answer so I can't humiliate myself with a ridiculous guess.
K :spade:Kx
Preflop standart raise
Flop completes the set an opens a way for possible nut flush. I believe Hero intended to slowplay here in case villain hit an ace and wanted to take the initiative.
Turn opens the way for flush further. Believing he has the best hand, hero makes a bet to check if villain hit the flush and extract the most money if not.
River completes the flush. having a tendency to slowplay, hero checks and hopes the villain hit his flush (which he most likely did). Once he took the bait, hero went all-in.
3 bet preflop: 22+,A2s+,K9s+,QTs+,A3o+,KTo+
Flop: due to the check i would say has a K♠ X sort of hand; maybe was scared of the A
Turn: 2/3 of the pots seems a bit too much; i dont think would have betted so much if kad K♠X:spade:
River: Check raise for value: K♠T+ (T, J, Q, K, A).
But if to say specifically would say K♠ Q

Few remarks: is it FR or SH? And specifics of the game (blinds, deep stacked)?
It's 3-handed and the stack sizes are in the hand history.
KsQs: makes sense to raise a potential steal attempt with KsQs,then check the flop instead of C-bet with an overcard A on the board, see if you can see the turn for cheap/free by exerting some pot control. Make the "nuts" (apart from wheel straightflush) on the turn, and then make the delayed C-bet even though it is a pure value bet. River completes a flush for anyone with with a single spade, and hero can pretend that the fourth spade scared him by checking the river. The check-raise on the river screams (virtual) nuts to me.
K
T
Pre: i think he can 3b this hand against btn pretty standar i dont think he is holding kk because of the 3b size
Flop: hero Cbet KQ KJ but probably not KT.
Turn: he is got second pair and flush draw to the nuts so he goes to take down the pot
River: Hero has the nuts and he is only getting beat by 5
4
so he is willing to stack here against anything but checking makes more sense so villian can go ahead and bluff all is air or stack with Q
x against a check raise that polarizes heroes range and villian will be forced to call with Q

lets set SB's 3betting range is wide vs. BU open
22+, A2s+, K9s+, QTs+, A3o+, KTo+
flop is A2K two spades.
if hero had an A, would probably bet for value and protection so we can take out aces.
22+ K9s+ QTs+ KTo+
If it was a set, I think same thing, lead out. so I remove 22, KK, and AA.
33-QQ
I don't like the idea of 3betting with low pp's, so we can take out 3's, 4's and 5's
66-QQ, K9s+ QTs+ KTo+
Turn completes the flush draw. 3s and make a 2/3 pot bet.
If was going for check raise on flop, then simply gong for value here, hoping BU has a spade. What weaker hands would call? Ax, a weaker flush draw? Ax not likely since flop was checked behind.
A turn bet only isolates us against better hands, so there shouldn't be any better hands to call, only worse. Bluffing here wouldn't be a good idea imo. If I have K high flush here, I'm not going for a 2nd check raise if the first one failed, and if he's going to call a 1/2pot bet, he'll calla 2/3pot bet, but maybe not a pot size bet.
The river check raise makes it look like flop was also missed c/r. This gives me only one hand that can be c/r for value.. a flush with a Ks.
we have K9 KT, KJ, and KQ to choose from.
if we have the K, then likely villain has the QJs or JTs.. either we have KJs, or KQs I'm going to go with KJs, since everyone else will probably pick KQs. This leaves villain with a decent hand like QTs., that would open, and might call a 3bet IP and play the hand like this.
on flop villain has a gutshot and a non-nut flush draw. Checking behind is ok.
on turn villain has a non-nut flush and calling is ok.
on river, villain goes for value and gets 3bet, but can't fold the flush.. only K hi flush beats him, and that's what we must have.
It's between K:s J:s and K:s Q:s for me.
I'll go with K:s Q:s (with my luck, it's probably the other choice)
Hope my reasoning is sound?
I think he had K :spade:Q non- ![]()
Good hand to raise with preflop. Check on the flop because of the A.
On the turn he bets because there were no best on the flop and hits the flush on the river.

Regular 3bet pre, slowroll check on flop, value on turn and the all in on the river for the big bucks.
I'd say K :spade:J. (K
J
if colors are needed)
KJ is a good hand to reraise preflop especially the button should be raising the blinds with a very large range.
The ace on the flop stop the action so both checks.
Hero raise to get value on his pair of kings ans flush draw.
On the river he has the best hand so he checks/raise to induce a bluff or a raise if the button has any spades.
Well, since the best guesses are out there already I'll go with Ks5s.
Not sure he's 3betting that pre, but could see that. River he has nuts since he blocks better hand at same time not blocking high spades which he'd expect villain to vbet.

3bet preflop,
slowroll set on flop,
value bet on the turn with one spade to hit the nuts
river hit the nuts set a trap and checks assuming the button also hit the flush when the bet comes from buttons he goes all in for a sure double-up
I think he has Q :club:Q
n coz that was check on flop,i think hero check to control n of course to see where is he in pot.
Now hero see opportunity on turn to semi bluff,then he had good n strong hand on river n deside to go all coz that tricky n big bet of villian.
And villian had A
J
