Thanks for all the responses.

Exactly so the raise on the river accomplishes absolutely nothing other than throwing away money.

My raise was supposed to represent the hand he unfortunately had. I was hoping a hand like TPTK would fold. As I said, I prob should have gathered that he had a better hand than that when he bet then river.

My bigger question, which still no one has really touched on, is if this type of raise (after raisng flop and then just calling turn) looks to much like a missed draw. This si obviously an instacall with the nuts, but will any thinking player look at this line and call with TPTK because it looks like I'm bluffing with a missed draw?
