I would fold the river to that shove. I doubt many players at these stakes are shoving the river as a bluff here and even if they are we should have enough flushes in our range to protect us from being exploited.

I would much rather call this raise with a hand that has blockers to the flush as well. A hand like QhQx, or AhKx would probably make a better call in this scenario because we would block so much of V's value range.

This is a flush 9/10 times, bet folding river seems fine

fold river

I believe that check / call on the river would be better after the flush completes, depending on the sizebet of V. Sometimes we can make V bluff.

Check calling makes no sense imo . Villian shouldn't really get to river with any bluffs

Actually there are not many, I can see some worse Kx that will rarely appear and bluff this river if V is very bad (information we do not have).

But this line is very much for flush. Like I said, if it's a small sizebet made of V on the river, do you think it's a bad call anyway?
