    I would just take the showdown we're being given. Yah we'll lose to Kx often, but I don't think we can take him off Kx either given FD bricked and we rep narrow (jx only).

    I think he shows up with enough FD's that c/c turn that we can win with our Tx sometimes.

    Don't you think it's OK here that we rep narrow? Like we rep really clear - he's in no doubt what we're repping.

    Given that we flatted flop, I think all our bricked FDs are checking behind turn for the free card, so I really don't think we look like a busted FD.

    I actually think a 15/12 is entirely capable of folding Kx here.

    BTW, I will think again - I'm grateful for your advice, and spew is one of my biggest problems, so I'm not trying to contradict you or reject your advice, I just don't see how a river bet (given turn as played) can be so bad.

    I think we have barely any SD value with Tx, because I don't think he can really have many FDs to c/c turn with after the flop - what other FDs than AQdd and ATdd do you think he bets the flop into 2 opponents with?

    EDIT TO ADD: Just realised he can bet flop then c/c turn with KQdd as well, but we can't beat it so doesn't improve our showdown value.
