Yep.

Edit: It's close. You likely won't get called by any non-made hands, which leaves it to just a J, which I think will call.

I'm betting and folding to a raise.

I'm a little unsure if my line to fold to a raise is correct because it's also possible that someone holds a straight which we beat, but I think there would have been more action if someone flopped a straight. Thoughts?

I wouldn't bet. He is not calling with many hands without a boat.
Check/call is better. He might bluff or you pay less if he has it.

I wouldn't fold a boat to a raise, he didn't show any agression yet and you really want to see the showdown here.

A jack calls about 95% of the time here.

nice flop bet. I think many would just c/c here, but betting out is much better.

I think the river is a check/call. classic reasoning applies - unlikely to be called by something better, but could induce a bluff.

I like the check/call for value. You're unlikely to be called by a worse hand and you may be able to induce a bluff. You want a showdown. However if you're raised, I'm pretty sure you're behind. Hence the check/call.

I check/call. I think it's close though.
