A5 and/or a heart flush draw is my guess.

Whatever the case, you certainly played it right. His raise on the flop doesn't tell you much. His cap is a bit scary. Could have an overpair or a set, a straight is very unlikely with his preflop raise. (Ignoring my hand history I just posted, raising preflop with 65s, but that is NL where it can work.)

Combined with the overcard on the turn, you have to check. He could have hit that king along with the other things above. His check on the turn is reassuring, you know you have him beat now.

Unfortunately the river brings another scare card. A8 is a possible hand, and it would certainly explain the cap on the flop.

But the hands you post like this you've usually won, so I'm guessing its something like A5. The cap on the flop would be for a free card on the turn I guess. The river bet also makes since here since you've checked twice in a row. I'd start thinking A5 may be good.

I would have bet the turn and folded to a re-raise, the river is just ouch. On the flop without a read I'd put the raiser on JJ or QQ. Nice isolation raise, TT loses a lot of its power 3handed.
Poker is all about the long long long long long long long term . . .

Folding at any point here is sooo weak/tight. CO open raise is a far broader ranger than JJ+, my pre-flop raise is for both isolation and value. I also expect worse hands to cap pre-flop, just because they can.

Turn is an interesting choice between bet/call and check/call. I felt I had to respect the flop cap, and expected him to bet out the turn even if I was ahead.
