Default Re: Bet/fold river correct?

[ QUOTE ]
Here are some reasons I thought bet/folding was a good play:

1. What's he raising the river with that I ever beat? My only real read is that he isn't a maniac, so I felt like if I got raised on the river it was an easy fold.

2. I felt like he would call with more hands than he would bet, hands like JJ, QQ, AQ, AT.

With those two points, I felt like bet/folding was the way to go. Where is my logic wrong?

If he's the type of player that overvalues non-AK Kx hands he might mistakenly value raise the river. He might have AQ and decide to pull a desperation bluff. He might have QQ and just be an idiot. Some people play really bad when they're the preflop aggressor.
