Default Re: am i not doing something right?

I thought I was betting for value on the river, what exactly is a "blocking bet", Is it a bet that stops your opponent from trying to bluff you out by showing enough strength that he will think you will call? I'm sure I would have called had he reraised all in, can you expect anyone to call down with a J when the implied odds aren't even there?

If I don't make this blocking bet isn't that just going to induce a bluff from any agressive player? Do I have to call because of that possibility?

These situations are very difficult.
