I don't like the preflop limp at all. The river bet seems fine to me, you will get a lot of worse hands calling although sometimes you will get called by somebody who didn't bet a jack, but that's ok, more often than not T9 calls, etc.

K9o does not play well multiway, so preflop limp sucks, at least raise it if you are going to play such trash

limping is probably better at lower limits

I like to play suited kings in position against guys like this (if they have full stacks) because they always play their crappy suited cards and you'll definitely stack them if you make a better flush then them.

Yeah but the way that good players protect against that happening is by not playing 73 suited in the first place. If a fish at the table is playing all his suited cards and I have a big stack then if possible I'd like to get in for cheap in late position with a garbage hand like K2 suited because there's an increased potential for stacking him.

river bet seems marginal. You might get a call from 22/33/5x/66-88. I would expect a mid-pocket to bet on the turn though. No one is folding a J for a buck, either.
