Easy raise on the river. I think the BB is putting you on a steal attempt and getting a little too carried away with a decent, but worse hand than yours.

Raise and cap river.

This was my thinking too. I should mention that I did steal his blind on the last round so I figured he could be trying to "teach me a lesson" with a second best hand. Instead he taught me a lesson with the nut straight.

I think you can make a case for raising the river, but capping is way too much.

fairly standard after that turn cap.

I play it the same and maybe throw in a raise on the river. It depends on whether you think he is overplaying his hand or not because you might be on a SR.
