    Well fold is really not an option if you call flop and turn as nothing has really come to make your hand worse, only better. Not sure I love raising though as even the king on the river hasn't stopped him betting out, so I'm really unsure what he has here. If he flopped a set I'd have expected him to shove the river assuming you had a king to call two streets.

    Not sure whats with all the short stacks at this table at 1/3 of max buyin, so that does tend to lead to some baffling play, so he could have anything including middle pair. Think I call this time unless I have some other info just so I can make a note for next time. Can't see him folding to a raise, and as our kickers so bad I see no point getting mental in case he does have the other king. Frankly his bet sizing baffles me as to what he has, but if I really had to guess I'd say something like K10 and so he was worried about his kicker himself, or maybe a PP, but would have thought he may have shut down on that. Depends on villian I guess.

    I like your play on every street by the way. I think you can call or raise on the end depending on the hand reading ability of your opponent.

    Against a very good player I would flat here. As they are likely to know that you are unlikely to bluff in this situation, and they will therefore mainly only call you with hands that are beating you.

    Against a player that doesn't hand read very well, and thinks they two pairs 88s and KKs may be winning when you raise river. Then I think you could raise small on the river to try and squeeze value from these kind of hands. Even in this situation I think it is a fairly thin value raise.
