River, vs the donkbet is weak to fold? I think can be ahead of worst Kx that are capable of do this.
If river is a Q, T, J or a and he does this his better to fold?

Hey Sarvam,

Preflop open is fine.

Flop cbet for value/protection is good here multiway.

After we improve on the turn we can value-bet again.

I think a worse Kx is unlikely when villain donks river like this. He's generally pretty polarized. I think generally speaking the frequency with which players bluff at this limit is low enough that we can fold river here. Certainly not a bad call considering we have one of the stronger bluff catchers. I would definitely fold a naked Kx.
