    Default 2NL made A-high straight with flush draw on board

    PokerStars, $0.01/0.02 Hold'em Cash Games, 5 Players

    Board:
    BB: $1
    UTG: $5.03
    CO: $2.81
    Hero: $7.35
    SB: $8.44

    Dealt to Hero K K

    Pre-flop:
    (2 folds), Hero raises to $.08, SB calls $.07, (1 folds)

    Flop: ($.18) Q T J (2 Players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $.18, SB calls $.18

    Turn: ($.54) A (2 Players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $.54, SB calls $.54

    River: ($1.62) 8 (2 Players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $1, SB raises to $2.82, Hero calls $1.82

    I'm not sure about my bet sizing, nor am I sure if my play on the river was correct.

    Thanks.

    hmm idk how bad your opponent is but I would say check behind river. People won't call your pot-size bet on the turn w/out the same straight or a flush draw usually.

    Villain's stats were 48/6 (over 98 hands), WTSD% of 36. Not sure if those are the best stats to be looking at.

    wondering where the 3 extra chairs at my 6max table came from
    Meh... WTSD% is one of those stats that needs a half-decent sample size to be meaningful. But assuming the 36% is in the general vicinity, tells me he's prolly not calling a bet w/ worse on the River. So you'll either fold him out, and win what you would have won with a check, or get raised, and likely be facing the flush or chop-chop.
