Well, you spilled the beans by telling us what happened on the river. Pretty tough for someone to now say you should have checked and let him draw out on you :-). Might be better next time to save the results until you get some responses.


Anyway, if he's the kind who calls you down with just about anything, why not bet the turn? He may have a weak jack, but most players would raise the flop with any jack. Why give him a free card to catch a river card that could beat you?


I'm not sure I believe he would have folded for the turn bet, but I sure would have bet the turn. Were I him, I sure would have raised the river too.


"He doesn't look thrilled about the A." Guys who do usually don't have one.
