Is this an easy lay down? It hurts so bad to get into a pot that big and then have that river card. I keep telling myself he probably didn't have anything. He took a long time to push the river.

Then again, I guess I was trying to prevent the Ks from hitting that card without paying quite a sum, so why wouldn't I lay it down, right?

no reads: painful fold.

Keep an eye on him to see if he pulls this kind of crap often, so that you have information for future hands..

He just calls the flop so looks like he has a lot of outs if he's willing to call that big raise by you but not a made hand that he has to protect against the 3 suited board, maybe a weak pair + strong draw. He posted a blind (just joined the table i guess) and saw the flop without VP$IP so he could hold Ks with a 2 or 9 maybe.
