				 Is this a decent example of a blocking bet?
				
					
						No reads on this guy...had recently sat in...generally he's calling with a better King or a draw.
 Is it better to check/call the river or check/fold to an unreasonable bet?
 I just don't like getting into that situation, where I have a fairly strong hand, no one tells me I'm beat, but the board gets semi-nasty - I check the river and they push...doesn't tell me I'm necessarily beat because it also looks like I missed my draw.
 I figure if I'm raised here, I'm beat and can get out...otherwise I at least get a reasonably priced showdown.
