Default Re: JJ on river A vs two passives. Anyone value bet here?

I check this particular river; two passives, bottom card paired, an A on board and a three flush combined with the fact that original raiser ONLY raises 5% of his hands preflop makes this an EASY check! What hand does original preflop raiser raise that does not beat JJ and does not have at least one Ace in the hole? 1010 MAYBE (a true prayer). The reason he didnt bet his ace on the river is because he probably is not that good and the board is really scary for a passive who just hit his hand but could still be beat. He won't bet it, but he will call. Rarely will this player fold the winning hand on the river with the pot this size. Easy check! other dud might have anything including an Ace, trips or flush. If either player or both have busted draws (highly unlikely) they will fold and there is no value in that!
