Did I play this too aggro? Can I fold hte river?

[Ojo_Rojo]

I would raise much more on the flop, make it about $15, folding to a reraise. Check behind on the turn, and fold on that river.

As you played it, I really cant see opponent holding a worse hand often enough to make the call on the river correct.

I really think you needed to check on that turn, though.

At first glance I like the flop raise to $15, it probably commits me with Villains stack size though... With Villains stack the money is probably going in no matter how you play this hand.

As played I check behind on the turn. If you want to bet put him allin.

I call this river everytime even for information only (and for laughs when he shows JJ)

[4_2_it]

As Ojo said, raise that flop to $15 (or push since villain only will have $5 or $6 behind) to commit villain's stack. Your plan should be to make sure he is all in by the turn.

[Ojo_Rojo]

Sorry, didnt realise Villains stack was so short - once youve made the raise on the flop youre both committed.
