First time I ever pulled this off. I was sure he wouldn't go for it on the river, but figured I'd try anyways.

That is a thing of beauty. I've always developed cold feet on the last checkraise and just led out.

Did he pause at all before betting the river?

Very briefly. I usually do the same (wimp out) and just lead out - but he seemed aggressive enough to try it with. So on a whim I did.

After I did it I type in "trifecta!" and another player at the table (decent player) types in "I didn't think he'd go for it on the river".
