A really awkward spot for JJ here, and I couldn't tell exactly how much I did (or didn't) like the flop. CO is new to the table, no read on him, button seemed pretty typical. After the session my numbers on him (50 hands) read 34/6.
I particularly hate my river play, but I think the critical juncture in the hand is the turn. The turn was really a total shock of a card for me, I checked with the intention of raising but then changed my mind and called. I think I should have check-raised the turn, and then if the CO calls 2 cold there I know he has the Ad. Turns out he folded for one bet so I don't need to worry about a flush draw there.
All thoughts appreciated, as always.
