Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$0.1/$0.25 No-Limit Hold'em (6 handed)

Known players:
[tg]BU$25.00:///////;SB (Hero)$61.97:///////;BB$6.55:///////;MP2$30.34:///////;MP3$34.01:///////;CO$27.72:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is SB with K:s, A:s.
2 folds, CO raises to $0.75, BU folds, Hero raises to $2.50, BB folds, CO calls $1.75.

Flop: ($5.25) J:h, T:c, 6:d (2 players)
Hero bets $2.49, CO calls $2.49.

Turn: ($10.23) Q:c (2 players)
Hero checks, CO checks.

River: ($10.23) J:c (2 players)
Hero checks, CO bets $7.29, Hero calls $7.29.

Final Pot: $24.81.
Results follow:

Spoiler

CO shows a flush, queen high(7:c 8:c).
Hero shows a straight, ace high(K:s A:s).

CO wins with a flush, queen high(7:c 8:c).

I though he would have TT/JJ/QQ so often that a xr would be better. Maybe it's better to just bet?

River card really sucks but I called because he can maybe have Jx.

Hi Anomic,

Just bet the turn. If anything that turn card also helps his range quite a bit.

And why check that river to him and why does the card suck? When does he really check back JJ/TT/QJ on the turn?

I think you are being very pesimistic here.

Good point, but it's still a pretty ugly card for me. If I would have bet the turn, how should I play the river? I guess he can have AQs-AJs,KJs+,AQo-AJo,KQo more often than a flush or fullhouse?

clear bet on the turn. Villain might check back, and we souldn't risk that.
Regarding river, just put Villain's calling range and see if you are ahead to say if you have value bet.
