Default Results and another hand -- JT/two pair/board pairs on river

@reptilehouse: I think you underestimate the possibility of A8s/A6s or something like QTs/JTs given the position of the PFR, but you're probably still right.

@harv: Well, what if I did have QQ? This post is more about my general bad river play than this specific hand. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Honestly I would check this on autopilot a mere 2 weeks ago, but after I thought about it for two seconds I realized that betting was probably correct for reasons confirmed in the replies here. I bet intending to call, Villain called and showed JJ.

Some context on the following hand: I am on an unholy rush of cards. That $400 stack came from a $150 buy-in less than an hour and a half ago. Villain is relatively new to the table, and has been playing decently though there was one hand where he PFR from an early position, I called in the BB with 99, flop 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], he goes to war on the flop and calls down and shows 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8. So I can't yet tell if he's a LAG, or a thinking TAG who thinks I'm a LAG based on my coincidentally hyper-aggressive play at this table.

I think I screwed up the turn here (in retrospect I probably should have donk/3bet), but given that I didn't, how should I feel about the board pairing? Since I'm no longer beating an overpair, should I try to induce a bluff from overcards?
