Player was a 40/10. I had a read that he slowplayed monster hands (he checked down until the river OOP while holding a flush on the flop in a heads-up pot before).

Checked that terrible turn to control the pot, though it'd probably be better to bet/fold here rather than on the river, since I'd be protecting against a :heart:?

As played, bet/fold river? I figured he had enough Tx, Qx and some Kx to justify it, though I expected him to play his flushes and straights like this as well.

I'd make the flop raise a bit bigger, make him pay more to chase a draw. Turn really sucks, so I think checking behind isn't bad, but bet/fold is reasonable too. Depends a bit on any reads I might have.

The river makes things worse, cause now Kx and 5x have you beat as well. So I'm not sure there's much value to be found here anymore by betting, and seeing as you already have a read villain is prone to slowplaying monster hands, I wouldn't mind checking behind again.
