Default 15-30 live hand

This hand came from the 15-30 full ring round by round game at Motor City Casino. One round of holdem was dealt and one round of Omaha high. Despite the fact that this was a full ring hand I will post it here becuz this was a steal situation and I like the Short handed forums better than the full game forums.

I had A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] on the button and everyone folded to me. I just want to point out that if this was a 1-2 structure game 10-20 or below, I would usually fold this hand in this spot becuz the rake at MCC is extremely high ($6 max rake+$1 bad beat+$1 tip).

However this was a 2/3 structure game and the SB was a rock, and the BB whom I had only known for roughly 45 minutes seemed to be a reasonably tight agressive player who was trying to play well. I also felt he was capable of bluffing but not to the point of overdoing it, but I felt he was generally a fearless player, but I also felt he would give up his BB a reasonble amount of time. So with too tight players in a 2/3 structure game I felt opening with A4o was a profitable play.

After I raised the SB folded as expected and the BB called. The flop came out J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. He checked and I bet and he called. At this point I had no idea how to play the turn. If this hand was online and I didnt know what to do on the turn, I may just check behind and call a river bet. In live play, at these stakes, I prefer betting the turn if I dont know what to do becuz these games are not nearly as aggressive as online.

The turn was a total blank card, the 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. I bet and he called. At this point I wasnt sure what he had, but my plan was to check the river UI.

The river was a J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. To my dismay, my opponent now bets the river. What would you do at this point and why?
