Where was this?

Could easily be either Teesside venue, lots of people who never ever believe you there.

I had 99.

Ok, was thinking along the same lines as Alex

Reasons for checking turn?

Stockton.

I've decided to play a bit more regularly, online is so tough now, and I enjoy playing live.

Maybe I'll see you there one time soon.

Trying to make it look I was just have a stab at the pot on the flop, then giving up on the turn.

His sizing was strange - he's giving me over 6/1 about calling, so I figure he's either insanely strong 88, 89 or K8. At the very least an 8 or he's making a strange value bet with just a king.

I decided to instashove the river, regardless. If he's got an 8 he's calling I thought no what comes. And if it's a blank, he might really call me down weak.

QS was about the worst card I could see, but he called anyway

weak line you took here & got very lucky on the turn, avoid the variance by checking this flop as you will be massively behind a high percentage of the time. However, as played KJo is a clear fold on the river IMO
