My brother actually came into the room when i was playing this hand and made me jump, and so my arm spazzed out and i clicked the check button on the turn which i wasn't happy about. I most likely would have bet something like 60 cents at this spot. But this river bet is really deceiving.

How is it deceiving? I would still raise villain's weak bet.

I've heard some pretty bad excuses for playing weak-tight before, but this one really takes the cake.

there's a ton of draws, I'd raise more on the flop, bet turn and definitely raised river although I do not think it gets called very often - these small bets villain is making are mostly draws, weak hands like 2nd pair or total air. The people who use them are usually bad enough to call a moderate river raise with 2nd pair.

I'd definately raise river. It looks like a blocker bet trying to get some value out of tp. Especially at these stakes you'll get a call from pretty much any pair here.
