Yeah... I'm never folding top pair second kicker here with 15bb.

I think betting 1200 on the flop is fine. Betting the turn small sets up a nice stack for a river shove.

As played I'm just getting it in against his (effective) shove on the river. Whenever you're this short the value of top pair good kicker just goes through the roof. The only things you're really losing to are AQdd, JTdd, KT and KJ. I think he would mostly raise his sets and flush draws though, so there's really not a whole lot you're losing to here. There's a ton of busted draws he can bet here, as well as some worse Kx and Jx/Tx that he's turning into a bluff.

Hey Adam!

Agree to TinoLaan! You def. want to bet the turn 4 value against hands like k9, kj, and all flushdraws + picked up gutshtos like aj, aq! Its also for setting up a rivervalueshove (like Tino said)

Greets,
