Hi delta:

I think that this hand is super standard. The minor error was made on the turn. You made your straight and now you don't want to lose him with a big bet. I'd probably lead that for $2.

The river is a good play. You check to induce the bluff which disguises your powerhouse hand. And check/raising all-in there is pretty useless. You have the nuts and he can't have a hand that beats you that can call. Very nice hand, all in all.

joy

Raise the river about 67% of the time, it's important to vary your play according to game theory to make yourself unexploitable.
