    Default rivered trips in BvB, did i miss some value here?

    villain is running 21/9 over 140 and hasn't got out of line as yet. i have a note on him saying "limp/fold from EP x2" so is quite possibly weak-tight. i would quite often check the turn in hope of getting some river value here from worse one pair hands and to prevent owning myself versus a passive two-pair line, but his check made me weight his range away from two pair hands and toward one pairs and flush draws. i don't know how to react to this riverbet, i felt like minraising/folding to a shove as there aren't many jacks in his range that dont have me outkicked or have a full house. thoughts on river/turn play?

    fwiw he might raise AJ here preflop, thus discounting it from his range on later streets and making there be more Jx hands in his river leading range which i beat.

    I wouldn't raise the flop for a start and that really changes the way this hand plays out.. As played I think there is value in raise/folding to $15, he turns up w/ JQ and J9 quite a lot (and T9 which might call), but I think this is a missed draw quite a lot. I think he occasionally has some butchered nut hand so obv fold if he 3bets.

    Would never raise the flop, turn bet as played is OK. Seeing as he is an unknown donk raising the river is fine
