I guess it looks like I should be c-betting??

You know when you get the feeling a c-bet is just not going to work and you should just pretend you're slowplaying or hope to hit something?

If villain doesn't steal to much, then this is probably the best idea. If villain is likely to be stealing and you are trying to resteal, then you need to bet this flop just like you would with AA or KK. In reraised pots, try leading a little over 1/2 pot and fold to a raise. If you get called, shut down unless the ace or jack hits the turn.

As played, the turn isn't horrible but the river is. TPTK is a hand we really try to control pot size with and you put the rest of your stack on the line. Just make a value bet.

He had .05 left on the river..

sounds good though, the 3/4 pot bet on the flop in rr'ed pots.
