Opponent has been rather unorthodox. Peeling alot OOP, folding alot of buttons, then donking alot of flops. 

This was the first time id seen a c/c c/c lead. Given the board run out whats the best play on this river.

    Just call imo, you're still ahead of loads of hands he could have, raising will just make him fold everything you beat anyway.

    It's hard to say in HU without a feel for how the game has been going but in a vacuum I think the above is fine.

    Ummm... up until the hu i was crushing. Now i feel like a bug. He defo had the upper hand in the hu battle. Not sure why as i felt i was the better player, but he was winning the chips. 

    Lots of weird spots like this one to be honest. This was the first time i felt i was in a bind and might have to call though. Although there had never been c/c c/c then this before.

    Personally it's very close between a fold and call for me, the lead out on the river is going to be a random 10 or qj alot i think, if he hasn't taken this line very often i would be thinking he has called with middle pair caught trips on the turn decided to call the turn so as to keep his hand disguised, then leads the river to ensure you don't check behind. The lead out on the river in my experience tends to be someone desperate to get value from a big hand alot more often than someone bluffing, although he could obviously turn up with alot of worse Ks, i would sway towards a fold, although thats easy to say when analysing and reflecting, i would no doubt of come to that conclusion and still called.
