    i'm not raising. you have the 3rd nuts. you capped the turn, which shows significant strength, and they are still betting....especially on a brick river.

    bet/call.
    To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.

    I also bet/call this river. It's too easy for your opponents to have hands like the lone Ks or a set (or even a lower flush) to pass up value by checking. But if raised, you only have 3rd nuts against heavy turn action so calling a raise looks correct.

    The guy im afraid of having the flush is the Duggio, and it seems odd that he would check the river if he hit his flush. I think Duggio has two pair, but im almost positive bjakq has a set.

    Capping the turn then check/calling a blank seems weak to me somehow

    Me too. If I am capping the turn I am leading the river.
