I was at this table for 2-3 orbits before this hand. The only read I had for Lejohe was that he would overbet the pot almost every time he played a hand. I don't remember what he had shown down to this point. I spent the entire 30 seconds to act after his river bet. Should I have called?

That's tough. You got trips, straight, flush, full house working against you. His all-in bet is not too great and you are already pot committed. I'd hate to lay this one down. But keep him honest.

i would reraise him on the flop to see where im at, if he comes back over the top of you, you know your beat and can fold.

I would 1st) Raise a bit higher preflop, maybe to 1.5, 2nd) Probably also raise his flop, and I think you have to call the river, it's only a pot sized bet. I personally put him on like mid pair or high card high card.

Okay, so a reraise after his flop raise instead of my call was the play here I guess. I'm hesitant to reraise a raise unless I feel very strongly that I have the best hand and with this one I didn't think he had a 6 but I wasn't sure with his flop raise. I did end up calling the river bet (after much deliberation). Results:

blastem_1 calls [$10.9].
Lejohe shows [ Kh, Th ] two pairs, tens and sixes.
blastem_1 shows [ Qs, Qd ] two pairs, queens and sixes.
blastem_1 wins $39.05 from the main pot with two pairs, queens and sixes.

Thanks for the input.
