Wow. If anyone but andathar posts Hand 1, then get ripped apart. I, for one, think this a very bad fold.

Edit: And why is checking the flop so "standard?" I think betting this flop is perfectly fine, if not preferrable. But then again, this assumes I will be going broke anyway if one of the Villains has a J. Clearly this does not apply to you.

heh, he's still getting ripped apart for it. However yeah, Adanthar's point is still an excellent one, regardless whether the examples are accurate - a ton of people (including myself) make some pretty damn bad river calls. While they don't have to be correct very often to be profitable, a lot of them aren't profitable enough, and at the very least you should analyze what he could have before you call.
