I am either learning to read bets or i am plain stupid:

Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (9 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

saw flop | saw showdown

UTG+1 ($54.50)
MP1 ($23.40)
MP2 ($47.75)
MP3 ($51.40)
CO ($10.85)
Button ($45.65)
Hero (SB) ($20)
BB ($29.55)
UTG ($67.25)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 10:diamond:, 9♣
2 folds, MP1 calls $0.50, 4 folds, Hero calls $0.25, BB checks

Flop: ($1.50) 10:spade:, 2♦, 8♠ (3 players)
Hero bets $1.50, 1 fold, MP1 calls $1.50

Turn: ($4.50) 6♦ (2 players)
Hero bets $2.50, MP1 calls $2.50

River: ($9.50) 3♣ (2 players)
Hero checks, MP1 bets $15.50, Hero calls $15.50 (All-In)

Total pot: $40.50 | Rake: $2

Spoiler

Hero had 10:diamond:, 9♣ (one pair, tens).
MP1 had J♥, 7♦ (high card, Jack).
Outcome: Hero won $38.50

this guy was pretty loose all game.. and he kept on calling (indicative of a draw) then he decides to push. i thought that if he had something he would decide to post a bet to suck me in.. this was a bet to keep me out of the pot. maybe he only has a low pairn with A kicker. and i called him.

he later said i made a terrible terrible call.
i decided to reply by saying "says the loser", no point in explaining that i did have some sort of logic in my mad call.. (i checked with BR and the pot size before doing it and i thought i could afford it).

what do you think?

turn: bet 3.50$ protect against draws

easy fold on the river,
you better start believing in big river bets because it's almost never a bluff

I blockbet/fold the river and bet a bit more on the turn. As played you should fold imo. he will very often has a big hand if he bets like that.

Best regards,
