How should I have played the river?

Only reads I have are that the SB has only limped or folded pre-flop. Even with JJ.

First question, is the donk bet on the flop ok. Don't usually donk lead into multi-way pots but it seemed apropriate here.

Second question how worried should I be by the river. When I bet flushes on three streets normally I'm looking to get value from top pair or two pair type hands. Should I have bet the river?

    donk is fine imo with 2 overs + FD.

    Tough one, I probably just check the river and sigh if the CO bets. If they're really really bad, you could maybe bet/fold

    Glad to know it's not a trivial decision. SB had KK CO had a straight draw. I felt that I didn't have the dicipline to bet fold and figured check call was the cheapest option.

    I don't like donk betting here at all. If you get raised by the opener you pretty much have 9 outs and almost have to just fold. Plus you're gonna get a lot of calls on this flp. I just c/c flop
