Hi guys,

I was wondering if it is best to check or bet the turn.
His flop calling range consists mainly of flush draws and Jx.
In game I bet, but I'm guessing checking might be better.

Absolutely bet.For 19bb deep i expect that he probably shove his FD on the flop.Even if he dont shove that shallow, when you have a set of Kings is just a cooler,nothing you can to about it.Plus if you check back turn and river is a heart and he lead then your set is nothing more than a bluffcatcher.

What's your read up to that point, since you have been playing him for while now? How agressiv is villain with his draws?

If he usually plays his draws fast it's 100% another barrel + get it in. If not it's still a bet and most likely a call, unless villain is really nitty.

I guess he didn't play his draws agressive OOP.

Bet/folding the turn seems bad to me.

My thinking is we rep a flush just fine so for villain to jam turn on us when we have reads he isn't too out of line then we gotta be crushed

That's totally depend on what he thinks of our range imo.

Hero bets this turn, any other line seems stupidly stupid to me.

How much do you bet?
If you are up against a flush, you have a little less than 22% equity.
Meaning that if you want to bet call and break-even (against a flush) you have to bet almost 400.

So, if villain only gets it in with a flush on turn you have to bet/fold.
If you put some other random stuff in their hand - you probably can call off profitably.
So it is all dependent on what you believe he would shove with.

Edit: Yeah, obv hero bets on turn 100%.
