how do you think you should have played it?

Here's my two cents:

I'd play it same way against a tight player. The river is close I think. You possibly could get a bet out of A-J or A-T or a small pair but you could cost yourself a bet if he has TT or JJ and he intended on checking. If you know he would value bet with TT, JJ, or a Q, then I think you have an easy bet out on the river.

Against an agressive player, you probably check-raise the flop and earn an extra small bet.

That's officially my first strategy related post, lol.

The river looks like a bet. AJ/AT/77- often pay off here. XXh often bet the turn. He may have A8s, but he will have the others much more I think.

am I correct in assuming you would have folded to a turn bet?

It looks fine to me, I dont see a point in betting the river (or checkraising the flop)

I do. you can pretty much narrow his hand down to a straight, AQ/AJ/small pair, or maybe he's passive with a decent hand. if he's got a straight it's a wash between betting and folding. if e has AQ/AJ/small pair he probably won't bet though he often will pay off, so you gain by betting. a decent hand it's a wash.
