    Very few likely hands on that board that has connected. Very unlikely AK or any K - x, I think if I have 43 there I would of folded as played.

    But from his point of view, the river card changes nothing, so if they though was ahead on turn makes sense to call of river. 

    Personally I would of given up on this hand on turn, but brave to continue, think river needed to be a bit bigger to make anyone believe you had a K or premium like Aa or QQ, only hands that can realisticly bet for value

    Not an awful call imo.

    Your range likely contains a lot of draws. You don't have many K's in your range as you flatted the button. Your probably not v-betting and worse than a K and villain blocks one of your sets.

    As for your play I think a triple barrel is pretty standard here. You block villains combos of KQ/KJ/Q10/J10 which are a decent portion of their range.

    Keep this hand in mind when playing this villain in future and adjust by value betting thinner and bluffing with less combos of your missed draws. (Not that this particular one is bad)

    Thanks for the replies guys.

    I was actually trying to represent KJ or KQ on the river when the draw missed as I didn't think it unreasonable that I had flatted pre with those hands and then bet all three once he had shown weakness. I guess he just read it exactly right.

    Howevere, I am pretty sure that I can guarantee to miss a draw simply by betting it!

    I also like Davelufc's comment. Very constructive. Must take guts to take the mickey out of someones avatar when your is Leeds United. If it makes you feel any better I can remember when the DID have a good football team. Billy Bremner, Joe Jordan etc. I think it was the 70's wasn't it?
