I guess even TAGs are in love with the min-checkraise.

This is the kind of river where I have trouble deciding if my opponent suspects he's beat but is trying a bigger bet this time to see if he can get me to fold or if he's been trapping the whole way and, since I haven't gone anywhere, this is where he's really looking to get value.

And it's also possible, annoyingly, that his JT just got there. So the fold seems all right to me. I'm having trouble thinking of hands besides KJ and a persistent bluff that you're actually beating, and while AJ is also a possibility, it does seem like you're going to be losing here a lot, given Villain's line and the bad cards that fell. I don't know what he had, of course, but it does sort of look like JT, TT, or a flopped monster.
