Op is 27/13 after about 40 hands.

This is a question about maximum extraction with 2nd nut. I didn't want to scare anyone off, so I put a 2/3 bet in on a small pot on the flop. When he called the PSB on the turn, I figured he had to have something strong playing OOP....AA, AK, or maybe even a weak flush. What would be the best bet size here to extract maximum value, assuming he doesn't have the nuts?

Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (9 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

UTG+1 ($8.75)
MP1 ($30.60)
MP2 ($4.95)
MP3 ($3.85)
CO ($5.80)
Button ($2.35)
Hero (SB) ($9.95)
BB ($6.05)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 3, K
UTG+1 calls $0.10, MP1 calls $0.10, MP2 calls $0.10, MP3 calls $0.10, 2 folds, Hero calls $0.05, BB checks

Flop: ($0.60) 7, 6, J (6 players)
Hero bets $0.40, 1 fold, UTG+1 calls $0.40, 2 folds, MP3 calls $0.40

Turn: ($1.80) K (3 players)
Hero bets $1.80, UTG+1 calls $1.80, 1 fold

River: ($5.40) 5 (2 players)
Hero bets $?????,

 villain's taken such a passive line that i don't think he's betting or getting it all in on the river. i'd prob put in a value bet somewhere around 1/2 pot.

That's what I was thinking, too. I got greedy and shoved. He thought about it for a while, then folded. At that point, I knew he would have called the value bet, so I know I didn't get maximum value for this hand.

I shove this. If you pot the flop shoving the river is even easier since you don't have to overbet.
