Can we call river?
Did a few calls similar spots was always beat so stopped doing them, but I think this hand might be a call as we check back turn.

I think the flop bet is ok because villain can call with a-lot of hands like AJ,KJ,JT. T9, AT, Tx is OESD, FD's will call etc. On the turn though the King I think is actually a pretty bad card because I think he does have a-lot of Tx in his range that called the flop, I like the check behind. On the river I would fold to the bet. Against a betting range of two-pairs sets and straights we have 23% equity and we need roughly 30% to make the call you could even exclude two-pairs if you don't think villain is playing this way with them in which case he would be betting like only straights and we would have 0% equity.

Any info on the villain in this hand would be nice, but read less I would fold the river with the 4 card straight on this board.

If villain is tight just calling pre-flop isn't to bad ether.
