Villain is very passive with strong hands. Bets in weird places with no logical reason. I know I have to jam that river, but is my line/bet sizing fine given reads on villain?

So he has KJ? I mean, he must have or else you wouldn't be posting it.

What else are you going to do? Just call river? I mean, I guess you could do that and save 310 the number of times he has KJ but you lose out the number of times he has K4/44 here. Plus it's only 310 more..

No actually. I'm not posting this because I lost, I'm posting because I want to check my bet sizing/line vs. a villain where c/c = The nuts

oh.. I think you could bet a bit more on the river. I mean, he's never folding a jack here especially if you've been aggressive and shown down bluffs. 360 seems like a good number (he has 870 left in stack, so he'll call 360 and probably fold to 420+).

i'd bet a bit more on the river the first time, but otherwise it looks fine.

Ok, thanks. Fwiw villain had K5o. I was unsure of river bet size more than anything.

I play it exactly like you did, maybe a little bigger on the river.

What a funny tilt-inducing (for villain) hand this would be if river was 3

lol yap you are right but i think a 2 or 3 would really be a disaster for every players mindset.

Actually i like your total line and the river bet is optimal to get value from weaker hands because you are offering good pot odds and it will be hard for him to fold a K,J ...
