jackvance is an unknown quantity at this point
 Problem is you played it kinda weak, and so did your opponent, so it's hard to get any definite information. Personally, I raise $2 or $2.5 preflop, then 3/4 pot on the flop.

As played I'd probably check behind. You can take a shot at the pot with $7-$8 but it's not very believable anymore after you called a minbet on the turn, so you're probably getting called down by any pair and will only get a fold from a hand your A-high would have beaten anyway.

If you want to rep a strong hand, you have to raise him on the turn. Calling there means you admit you don't have much.
