PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, 1.5 Tournament, 15/30 Blinds (6 handed) - PokerStars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

Button (t565)
SB (t1420)
BB (t5285)
Hero (UTG) (t1425)
MP (t3590)
CO (t1215)

Hero's M: 31.67

Preflop: Hero is UTG with K, K
Hero bets t105, 4 folds, BB calls t75

Flop: (t225) J, 9, 7 (2 players)
BB bets t90, Hero raises to t315, BB calls t225

Turn: (t855) 9 (2 players)
BB bets t330, Hero raises to t1005 (All-In), BB calls t675

River: (t2865) 10 (2 players, 1 all-in)

Total pot: t2865

Villain had previously limped 2nd in with Q :diamond:7 :diamond: from CO, called a 4 BB raise by BU, hit middle pair on the flop, which was checked by all, called a turn bet from BU who had hit his A :diamond: which was the 2nd :diamond: on the board and he had a flush draw, and the hit 2nd 7 on the river.
Pretty much a "any two" player.

So with that in mind I think I made the following mistakes:
- I knew he might play a middle pair the way he did, as a hand like that was definitely in his range. So I misjudged.
- I couldn't let go of my Kings
- If played, I should've played for pot control and called rather than shove (all better hand call you, all weaker hands fold).

Can you please confirm ?

There are enough Jx hands (or even 7x) in "any two cards" player's range that he would go broke with, for you to be profitable.
There is no point in pot controlling on turn you would be priced in to call on river anyway.
Shoving the turn is good he might fold his Jx (even for 675 chips) if A or Q come on river.
