BB is a pretty LAG player, but not stupid. Stats are around 40/20

OK, first of all, given that this guy is a LAG, is there still value in the river bet? I would have expected him to raise me somewhere with any A, so I don't put him on that. I kind of sensed the C/R before it happened, yet bet anyways.

Second, do I pay this off?

Re: Learning to fold
 

This is the type of river bet where I tell myself before I bet that I have to fold if check raised because I am always so tempted to call. I think that there is value in the river bet especially since it is HU, you may get called by very weak hands. You can safely fold this river to a check raise. At best you are chopping.

How often does he bluff a busted flush draw? There's always QT too.

i dont see any value in that river bet.

Re: Learning to fold
 

I'm not that tough a player to fold against a LAG getting 11:1.
I can't answer if it's a value bet as I am influenced by the results. I think I would bet though.
