I put him on a weak ace. If this is the case, he's folding to a turn bet.

I don't mind your play but I don't see how you can have this specific of a read in this kind of situation. Also, you might want to bet the river. Most opponents will bet with a pair, and most will call with an ace.

The read was more of a gut feeling. From what little read I did have on him, he's either calling this flop with a weaker ace, or a pair.

As far as betting this river, I agree, I think I should be value betting this. However, I sometimes check these through, in hopes that these guys are somewhat perceptive. And, especially against someone directly on my right, I want them to fear my river bets. Seeing me play this hand in this manner (even though I'm fairly sure I'm ahead) may give me a passive image to this guy on my right.
