25/50 PLO in 8game. Value bet the river or not?

Hand1:  Villain is a russian reg.  People tend be be more showdown happy in 8game and it's obviously softer than a straight 25/50 plo game.  I realize I have the second nuts, but the K is one of the worst river cards in the deck for me.  I'm not sure how much value there is in betting and I'm really hating life after he jams over my bet.  I think it's probably just a bet/fold, but would like to hear others opinions.

hero...?


Hand2 villain is a good solid reg at all the games I would say.  He can definitely show up with the nuts and slightly better or worse flushes.  It's possible he may CR bluff me, but I think that's a very low % as people don't turn showdown hands into bluffs too often especially in 8game.  I'm not sure how suspicious he'll get with a set or straight here.
