Button is new to the table, which has otherwise been pretty average for this level.

In retrospect, I have wondered about this hand a good deal.
It's too early to read this player as solid, but if he is, there is a pretty limited range of hands that he could make these plays with, I think -- and my final hand doesn't beat all that many of them.
Should I have taken my foot of the gas at any particular point? Was capping the river as poor a play as I now think it was? (My current thinking was that my line was okay until that point, where I now think that calling his reraise should have been the end of it)
