As played, you showed tremendous strength throughout the hand, from donk betting the flop into two people on a dryish board and then continuing on the rest of the streets. While the King completed your straight, it basically devalued any Tx hand making it harder for the flop TP to continue. I think you did well to get a call on the turn. The only opportunity to make more money would be to bet bigger on the turn.
The villain's thinking was probably that you had TP on the flop, you might have been bluffing on the turn, but the river bet sealed that you actually had a big hand.
All good points. At the table, I was pretty certain that they dynamic was V in BB wasn't going to 3B the PFR in that spot. He was doing it a lot when late position came in with initial raise, but he was smooth calling early to mid position raises, so felt OK with JT there and thought I'd see a flop.
My donk bet was probably wrong, I still make defensive bets from my 20/40 days when taking the lead meant more in that game. Agreed that C/R turn was probably the move and that's where I probably made biggest mistake.
On a heater lately and working hard to improve. Appreciate the feedback.
