Unsure about turn and river play. Is this a missed draw enough of the time to make calling profitable?

I don't think I'd bet here on the flop in a multiway pot with middle pair. so maybe its a lil bit weak, but this is not the flop you wanna see with JT. I'd check/fold this..

Your getting 8:1, call.

This is ace rag almost always. But you're actually getting odds to call the turn and spike two pair or trips on the river. And you have to call the river because it's so cheap - you only need to win 1 in 7 times to make it a good call.

Calling him down is also good because he'll be more likely to stubbornly hold on to ace rag next time when you're ahead - and you'll be able to get a lot more value.

It's a check/fold for me after his flopcall.

They way you played it I'd call his riverbet, you're getting decent odds to call (as mentioned above).

dont raise with J10...seriously is a trouble hand even if u pair, even if its top pair ur gonna be in a difficult position.....limp and try yo spike a striaght or two pair with J10....most likely he has A rag....
