New to the table and villain is largely unknown. Before anyone says raise more PF, 4x usually gets the job done to isolate. For some reason lunch today was looser than normal.
My thought process: Is this a WA/WB situation? Seems like it to me, so I don't want to raise and scare off 2nd best hands. I also want to get full value from bluffers. Is river bet enough?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

MP ($38.15)
CO ($14.55)
Button ($35.15)
SB ($65.90)
BB ($55.25)
Hero ($49)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with K, K.
Hero raises to $2, 2 folds, Button calls $2, SB calls $1.75, BB calls $1.50.

Flop: ($8) 2, 7, 2 (4 players)
SB checks, BB bets $3.5, Hero calls $3.50, Button folds, SB folds.

Turn: ($15) 2 (2 players)
BB bets $5.5, Hero calls $5.50.

River: ($26) J (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $7, BB calls $7.

Final Pot: $40
Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.

Why would you want to raise more PF?

Anyways, I think I probably push the turn. Yes, we are in a WA/WB situation but we are most likely WA and if we push we are putting hands that are WB in a tough spot where they will often call. As played, I dont really like the tiny river bet and would definitely make it more.

When you get 3 callers, a lot of posters will say raise more PF to isolate. I was trying to avoid that situation in this thread.
Renton: Thanks for the river advice given the previous action.
