Villain in this hand is a standard LAGTAG, probably not an awful hand reader. I'm relearning LHE and I was really happy with my handreading and the way I played this hand. Any reason not to be?

If he thinks you are decent he should fold to the river C/R with KK,QQ. Of course many players pay off the river C/R although almost never is a bluff (but with what holding did you made this play other than a very good A,JJ?). If he has a bigger A then his plan clearly is to raise the river and you just missed a chance to make it 3 bets. But most of the times (given his play) he has a small A (A9,A8 etc - many LAGs 3bet these preflop especially a CO raise when they are in button) and he most likely will call the raise. So i like it.
