I think I made a good value bet on the river, despite the possibility of the straight. What do you think? Could I have bet more, based on the betting so far?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (7 handed) internettexasholdem.com (http://www.internettexasholdem.com)

Button (t670)
SB (t2805)
BB (t1310)
UTG (t640)
MP1 :#A500AF(villan)/ (t1025)
Hero (t990)
CO (t560)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, A/images/graemlins/spade.gif.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP1 :#A500AF(villan)/ calls t30, Hero calls t30, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, BB checks.

Flop: (t105) A/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 6/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 2/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">villan bets t55</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t110</font>, BB folds, villan calls t55.

Turn: (t325) T/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
villan checks, Hero checks.

River: (t325) J/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
villan checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t125</font>, <font color="#CC3333">villan raises to t250</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t375</font>, villan calls t125.

Final Pot: t1075

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
villan has Tc Ac (two pair, aces and tens).
Hero has Jd As (two pair, aces and jacks).
Outcome: Hero wins t1075. </font>

My reasoning is that KQ isn't betting the flop, so the straight isn't an issue. Is it likely villan would have called more on the river?

I see no reason to minraise when he raises you. I when he raises, you gotta push. 11 Villians will call you down with tons of hands that you beat, and a double up puts you in a commanding position for the bubble.
