Default PP $55, Flopped trip J\'s, River decision.

Villain has been tight so far, but it's too early to make a solid read.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t60 (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

MP3 (t2650)
CO (t3200)
Button (t6340)
SB (t2810)
Hero (t7743)
UTG (t4611)
UTG+1 (t5702)
MP1 (t2660)
MP2 (t5755)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
UTG calls t60, <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, Button calls t60, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero checks.

Flop: (t210) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t150</font>, UTG calls t150, Button folds.

Turn: (t510) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t350</font>, UTG calls t350.

River: (t1210) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t800</font>, UTG raises all-in [t4051]

My thoughts during the hand:

On the flop and turn I put UTG on a pair of Ks. So I was trying to make my bets enough to get him to call me down.

On the river he cannot have a pair of Ks unless he's a complete moron. So I figure he's bluffing a busted draw or has been slowplaying something since the 2 couldn't help anything. He limped UTG, so I highly doubt he has a smaller J than I do.

Thoughts?

My thought is that in a Party $55, this is, in order of decreasing likelihood: 55, KK, KJ, AJ, QJ, 22. Is this ever anything you're beating?
