Should I Have Gotten Away From This Hand

[lapoker17]

First, I don't know if like the way I played this hand at all - Forget not getting away from it on the end - And would appreciate any comments about the entire sequence.

10/20 at Commerce. I'm in the BB w/ $2800 in front. I'm dealt 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. 5 of us limp preflop. Flop comes 3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 10 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. I lead out for $80. 2 players fold, LP makes it $220, button folds, I call.

LP is, in my opinion, one of the best 3 players I see on a regular basis - Plays for a living and is always very deep - In this situation he has about $7k in front (not that deep for him, but the biggest stack at the table on this night). I generally just stay away from him, but have taken huge pots from him with the nuts to his 2nd nuts.

Anyway, back to the hand...

Turn brings 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. I check, het bets $480. I min raise to $960, he calls. Now I'm scared.

River brings 4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. I check and he, after trying to ask me a bunch of questions (without a response), says "I put you all in".

I call (my last $1600 or so) and he shows me pocket 6's, of course.

Just for background, a few weeks back I rivered the nuts and checked it to the same guy, who made a big bet w/ 2nd nuts, I moved in and took nearly all of his money after he called. My check on the river was, knowing that he would remember that situation, a ploy to get him to check behind with pocket 6's - Perhaps thinking I had limped with tens - The kind of preflop play he has seen me make in the past.

So, my primary question is: How bad was my call on the river? And, perhaps, how bad was my play overall?
