I'm assuming the turn call was wretched.

I wouldn't have given up on the turn so easily. This could be 2 pair just as easily as a flush or straight.

What kind of reads do you have on this villain if any at all?

I think we can count out AA-TT and A9+ unless he has a tendency to slowplay these hands. Does he like to limp/call like this a lot?

Like RickA said, we could see two-pair pretty often here. If he didn't make his flush or his straight, I expect to see KJ.

Bet turn.

As played, river fold (er, sigh lol) is fine.

Don't slow up on the turn holding something as powerful as second set. Lotta things you're beating here. The way you played it also induces an aggressive player to bluff you off the best hand on the river there. Not that I'm saying your average 25'er is on that board...but you don't wanna give him an easy way to make you fold a better hand here.
