Villain was around 40/4 ish and obviously very bad. Nothing about his river bet made sense unless he had like J9 or possibly a set. It really screamed busted draw to me though, thoughts?

Seat 1: SNAYKSONAPLAIN ($251.45)
Seat 2: The Big PAPA ($373.30)
Seat 3: headzupdonkey ($230.75)
Seat 4: Four2it ($282.05)
Seat 5: baypac12 ($176)
Seat 6: fatdogz ($95.35)
SNAYKSONAPLAIN posts the small blind of $1
The Big PAPA posts the big blind of $2
The button is in seat #6
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to SNAYKSONAPLAIN [8d 8s]
headzupdonkey folds
Four2it folds
baypac12 folds
fatdogz folds
SNAYKSONAPLAIN raises to $8
The Big PAPA calls $6
*** FLOP *** [2h 9h 3c]
SNAYKSONAPLAIN bets $11
The Big PAPA calls $11
*** TURN *** [2h 9h 3c] [4d]
SNAYKSONAPLAIN bets $25
The Big PAPA calls $25
*** RIVER *** [2h 9h 3c 4d] [Js]
SNAYKSONAPLAIN checks
The Big PAPA bets $88
SNAYKSONAPLAIN has 15 seconds left to act
SNAYKSONAPLAIN calls $88

 A5 fits if he's bad enough to never fold an ace preflop and expects you to bet the river. I couldn't ever fold here though.

elipsesjeff is an unknown quantity at this point
 I dont know how much i like your turn bet, but, given how the flush didnt come in you have to call this bet.

A lone nine checks behind on the river unless he made two pair

I don't always keep betting the turn, but I was confident my hand was good and there were a lot of draws on the board.

Turn seems like an easy bet against someone this bad.
