$6.18 pot ($0.28 rake)
Final Board: 4 Q 8 3 J
CO mucked and won $5.90 ($2.93 net)
Hero mucked K Q and lost (-$2.97 net)

I think it was pretty much standard to the river. He can call with 99,TT,JJ,QJ,QT,Q9 so basically with many hands. But then he made that weird donk otr. I know the odds are pretty good but i don't think he would do this with a bluff. Especially in this size. So imo it reminds me of a QJ or JJ. What do you think about the river?

Well, the first thing I think about is your betting pattern. Were you planning of making a bet OTR?
As played, looking to villain's stats, he isn't bluffing that much so a fold seems reasonable.

I would play this passively and xb turn. Keeping it small is right for me and we have as value.

Villain can sometimes check his flushes on the flop. I might check behind on the turn. OTR villains 1/2pot donk looks exactly like something slowplayed. I don't think he is going to bet JJ when flush is possible, he should just x/c there. I don't see him bluffing like this on this board very often. Our hand looks strong and his bet is not so big, he doesn't have much fold equity. Good fold.

Inverted logic about bet size. Always dangerous.

I'd call with AQ+ here. Something doesn't look right in his line.

AQ is a call but KQ is a fold. Strange lines are value...

It can be. In recent coaching session the coach insisted that they are mostly value.
