maybe i bet river a little smaller than you, but i really dont find fault in it since your check on the turn and psb on the river attempts to get value from smaller PP's.

a lot of the time i tend to bet the turn since i would do so were it the case i didnt hold an ace.

this type of hand is really player dependent, and its hard to tell u u made the right or wrong move. if this is your style, then good play. if its not what ud likely do w/ other types of hands that could get value from a smaller PP on this river, then it might not be such a good play.

u can answer these questions better than anyone.

Betting flop is standard.
As played bet the turn for value he's checked twice now.
As played river bet is way too big. Villain has showed no desire to contest this pot from the flop on. He doesnt have a 7 and he doesnt have QQ so you have the effective nuts. Go for a call from JJ, TT or something here.
