The same basic thing happened to me in a home game last week. I had pocket Jacks, the flop came J J A. I flopped quad jacks. I was up against the other rock in the game, the first one being me. The turn came I bet small he called with a Q. The river came a 10 and I bet medium to small bet and he just called with Q 10. No re-raise just a call. I was kinda pissed cause I coulda gotten so much money out of him but one i was up against a rock and two there was the scare of a straight on the board so I only picked up a small hand.

I guess if you're up against a loose aggressive player and the flop comes big for you, bet big if your table image isn't too tight cause he'll think you're bluffing and he'll try to come over the top and that's when you can nail him.
