Is this standard? I don't know how I feel about leading out on the flop, but I did.

As for the river is this a good bet, I don't see him holding anything that beats me

Perfect.

I don't see any point at which you can do anything else, unless you want to get tricky and really own an aggro opponent by check-raising the turn. (That would be really, really hot... but, again, you'd have to be pretty sure villain would bet and the check-raise wouldn't kill further action.

Perfect.

He's calling with a lot of pocket pairs, an 8, and maybe AK.
If he rasies the river, you can fold fairly easily.

Is he fancy?
Would he actually raise the river with that board with a hand that you beat?

I guess it's pretty player dependent, but as a default answer, I'd say fold.

I would have to think very, very hard before folding this river if raised. There are so few hands I think villain can have on the river given the way it was played I think a bluff/worse J will be around often enough that I think hero should call. But I guess it's close.
