do you often make a play like this with a small pair?

there's probably something wrong with my line of thought here and i definetly wouldn't mind having it pointed out regardless of how the hand played out.

The river A doesn't change a thing. If you were ahead on the turn you're still ahead, and vice versa. The flop offered both flush and straight draws and either villian missed a draw or he's winning and not folding.

I think this river is almost a perfect instance of where you want to check/call and hopefully induce a bluff if you're ahead, while limiting your loss to a single bet if you're behind.
