Play is against seemingly a reg. Is the river a fold? And, should I have played pre-flop/flop different?

I don't think you played it bad. If villain likes to 3bet a lot pre-flop you could think of a 4bet to like $1,20. On flop you can play it like you did or making a check/raise. There are some scary turn cards, but with the J♣: in the hand I'm not to worried. river isn't the greatest card in the world, but tough to think villain has only better hands in his/her shoving range.

Hi TonyMontanaha,
Welcome to PokerStrategy.com! :welcome:

With two clubs on the flop I would CBet -- or as SDK1987 suggests -- check raise.
This charges maximum price to people with draws, and tbh I didn't even consider a straight draw here, I would think opponent might have flush draws and overpairs to play like this.

Cheers,
VS

Thanks for the advice and welcome guys, it's appreciated!

If I would 4-bet pre-flop, wouldn't I pretty much make my hand a bluff? I assume I would have to call if he shoves, and with what range would he be doing that?
