It seems super likely that you're going to be c-betting Kcxc here a decent portion of the time? Would you play Jc9c this way?

I remember a few years ago a lot of discussion about nobody ever check-raising the river as a bluff often enough and a long irc chat about it with redzill4 after check-shoving him for value and him laughing that i never ever ever lost to his non-nut hand in that spot so ez fold. And subsequently losing quite a few stacks through simply experimenting with that line. This seems similar and obviously you block the nuts but villain can think you're full of shit. Comes down to answering whether or not he folds AQ/AK/A8s/T8s i guess. Your co steal range is way wider than a reg's button calling range here, he can't really have 67s, T8 and 55 have to be unlikely too, there are at most a couple of flushes in his range given Ac and Kc on the board etc.
