I didn't have any reads on the villian at this time. Not sure what i'm supposed to put him on here, or if he does this with any hands that we beat.

Ugh. This is bad. You committed yourself with that river bet. I would've considered checking. Besides, with the pot at 3K and you just over 2K, I'd rather push than throw out 1K. I don't see how to fold getting 6:1 with TPTK, after putting in over 70% of your stack.

Raise more on the flop (700-800). If you are going to bet river, just shove. Checking behind isn't bad either.

Raise more on the flop and just check the river. You only beat QJ and KQ that a sane player will call any bet with.
