bad spot with KK
UTG is unknown but everyone else is loose, and the button is 55/15 after 150 hands. I wish I had better reads but I was trying multitabling for a bonus.
How would you play this???

My thought with the weak ass river bet was to get value from a worse pair, but also possibly induce a bluff from a missed flush draw or pay off 7x. I figured a set would have played the flop a little stronger...but still wasn't sure.

So what are you beating here...?

You're not beating much there besides a bluff, and I don't think that's very likely in this spot. Be careful of talking yourself into calling by thinking you're inducing a bluff here.

I do that too much. People play really weird at this site so sometimes I'm right but yea - not really a good +ev type play/call most likely.
so...can anybody plz suggest a better way to play this? maybe check the river and only call a small bet? raise flop more?
