    I think I fold here on the river - almost all the hands I can put opp on has you beat (AJ and QQ I both find very likely here). You will be left with around 700 chips wich is due to the slow and low blinds.

    But you made a couple of mistakes before the river:
    1) The flop: the pot is around 600 here and you only bet 240 - with that sort of bet you invite all kinds of hand to call, and you dont want that here. I bet out 400-500.
    2) The turn: now the pot is over 1000 and again you make some gay bet of only 300. Either you checkfold because of the J that fell, or you push to drive out anyone drawing to a straigh and alike. It might be weak to check/fold the turn, but if you're pretty sure opp has you beat, theres no reason to put more chips in - you can fold and still be left with around 1000 wich is more than enough at this point.

    What did he have?

    bet bigger on the flop,
    on the turn the pot would have been big enough for u to push into. Thats wat shou;dl have happened.

    Fold. Type "nh" or "nice bet" and move on.

    Something tells me you're beat on the turn, but he either got filled up or made the straight on that river.

    Yep. Sadly laydown your kings on the river though.
    pulling a courtiebee pŏŏl-ĭng ā kôrt-ē-bē (verb phrase):
    1. overvaluing mid pocket pairs
    2. knowing you should fold, but donkishly calling or raising anyway

    As i posted in white above, I folded and he had pct Queens. I knew once the ten hit that I should have played the flop stronger, but atleas i was able to lay it down.
    I was able to get my chips in later fighting 3 outs to tripple up, and got rivered out, again with KK.
