What hand are you trying to get to fold here, TT? JT maybe? What other hands could he be on here that fold and have you beat?

I'd probably take the opportunity to check behind on the river here... hands you beat are unlikly to call you here.

ditto, to make this kind of move I think you need more of a read than the 55 hands you have

either more hands or something you've seen him do to make you think he can lay down a J here.

Exactly, I'd tried this move a few times when I first started playing SSNL online, and couldn't push people off their hands. I don't both playing fancy here I just check behind, the first loss is the best loss...

He's not a fish. I think I've played with him a few times. The PT stats aren't hands I've played, they're hands form my miner. He's nothing special, but not awful.

If he's good enough to believe your flop bet was merely a continuation bet, and that you now MUST have hit your ace and he can lay down a jack, then good play. I just think overall this sort of play is -EV at SSNL so I seldom try it.

It seems like you are best qualified to answer your own question here, as it comes down to your read on his play.

From what I know, he doesn't seem tight enough for you to make the bet, but you know more about him than me.
