Default Please review my play of JJ

I was dealt JcJd and wanted to know if most of you would have played it the same way. If not how should this be played? No reads on players and we both have normal size stacks for the blinds.

No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $1/$2
8 players


Pre-flop: (8 players)
UTG(Vilian) raises to $5, 6 folds, BB(Hero) raises to $16, UTG calls.


Flop: 10h; 4h; 10s; ($33, 2 players)
BB bets $20, UTG calls.


Turn: 6d; ($73, 2 players)
BB checks, UTG bets $16, BB raises all-in $166.2, UTG calls all-in $97.85.
Uncalled bets: $52.35 returned to BB.


River: 9d; ($300.7, 0 player + 2 all-in - Main pot: $300.7)

raise more pf. flop bet is fine as pct with paired board.
c/c turn and value bet river, as this gets most from 88/77.

His $16 turn bet is kind of goofy. He doesn't need to block since he has position, so it is some kind of value bet? Or a bluff inducer? (But this limit is a little low for that.) If it's a value bet, then he is one of two species of idiots: He might have a monster and is afraid of chasing you off; or he might have something that he thinks is ahead but he isn't really confidant, so he only wants to bet a little.

The problem with your big check-raise is that it usually will only chase off the hands you beat. Sure, you might get called down by a smaller pocket pair, but they might fold, whereas a 10 never will. I can't put him on a bigger pocket pair without a preflop reraise, except MAYBE QQ, and this might call you down anyway.

I say just call his baby bet on the turn and check the river. If he does have you beat, maybe he'll make another baby bet on the river and you get a cheap showdown. Either way, he's a moron and you should know that you deserve his stack. So save ammunition for a better spot than this.

Make it like $23 to go preflop and then bet near the pot on the flop. As played I raise the flop to $65 and shut down if called.
