I would normally c-bet there on a flop like that... I thought I could get him to bet wider than he would float with, but I really hate giving up the initiative.

I find a raise on the river since its only half the pot.
That surprises me. I would think his range is pretty polarized here even though it looks like value. I don't expect him to value bet a T here, and I have never seen him take that line with top pair or better - betting the flop, then checking the turn with the draws that are out there.

I guess I didn't bet for the same reason why I don't see a raise. I think there's a lot of random crap in his range, a few draws and not much else. If the J helped him, he's either got me beat or he made a pair or two pair with the case J

And yeah... I didn't notice the stack size in review. That was another reason why I thought checking to induce a bluff might be better - I'm loosing more when I'm beat than what I'm winning if he caught something because I'm not folding if he shoves.
