I agree with your assessment of the turn bet.If you're going to bet the turn, bet a lot more. I'd rather you bet 30 here on the turn. KJ probably would have raised the flop, and I'm putting Villain on a draw here.

I agree the turn bet should have been at least $20, but I don't really put him on a draw.. what could he be calling with off the flop that he is drawing to? 45? 89? I guess that comes down to your previous knowledge about how loose he is preflop in putting him on a hand like that. I think villian has a weaker king, KQ, KJ, KT, K9.. but I think you would have heard from KJ on the turn. I would not be scared of the river, and would fire a value bet.If you think he missed a draw, I guess you can check the river to induce a bluff.. otherwise I just throw a value bet out on the river.If he raises your bet on the river.. well I don't really know what I do against an unknown.-fop
