Re: bet the rock on the river with one pair?
If by slim chance your hand is good against the EP raiser on the turn... which I think it is unless he has exactly J-J... why are you just calling the turn here? I can think of no combos where if your "rock" read are correct, that the EP could have a 7. You need to improve your chances that your hand is best? I think the raise gets the BB out with his pair st8 draw type hands.
I think you need to raise the turn and see what happens...
Betting the river here is dangerous, but I would most likely bet the river for value here. The BB has done nothing to indicate that he has a hand and now the EP has given up seemingly indicating that you have emanated enough strength via calling to indicate he is beat.
In conclusion: I think you need to raise turn, and bet the end for value.
