SB: 100.5 BB (VPIP: 50.00, PFR: 50.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 2)

CO: 84.5 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has A♥ 8♥

fold, fold, fold, BTN raises to 3.5 BB, fold, Hero calls 2.5 BB

Flop: (7.5 BB, 2 players) K♥ 9♥ K♦
Hero checks, BTN bets 7 BB, Hero calls 7 BB

Turn: (21.5 BB, 2 players) A♣
Hero checks, BTN checks

River: (21.5 BB, 2 players) 2♠
Hero checks, BTN bets 20.5 BB, Hero calls 20.5 BB

Quite a weird line.
Do you make a call OTR?

PF I´d 3 bet. Flop call is ok. I would bet the turn. As played call the river also.

Completely agree with Mozzek, although I'm also happy with the check on the turn. I don't think that villain has too many kings or better aces after checking the turn, if he is trying to get trappy with a king, he is losing value so it's not a good line over all (Giving flush draws, which you happen to have, an extra shot). I call this every time.

I like this as played. I wouldn't donk turn here. By doing so we will fold out the hands we beat and villain continues only with Kx or Ax hands.

I would have played exactly the same. Even the call preflop I would make.

On the turn I would prefer to check also. I don't think we get value from worse hands and we may loose to a higher Ax.

On the river I don't see a problem in calling. If villain had bet the turn and the river, you could consider a fold there.

Correct to call a big BTN raise from the BB otherwise 3bet.
Nice nut flush draw, that is what we play this hand for, hero does not hit it on the next streets.
Dry flop, villain has no K, we block one A. I guess he hit a set with his pair on the river.
