Calling station (though at that hand i didn't really have enough hands to say). Is there a better way to play this out? I have issues playing against bad players as i can never get a good read on them. Possible to check the river here since its unlikely that he would've bet.

Knowing he is cs, bet bigger on flop and turn to extract from fd, and I guess check behind on river since fd hits and cs like KJ type hands.

Hello fractalsonfire,

Bet the flop & turn bigger and then decide accordingly. Either he has a lot worse Kx in his calling range or not -> ship or just Check behind and take the passive approach.

Best Regards.
