Turn check is weak, and gives him a chance to win, because what are you going to do when he bets even half a pot there? A second barrel, even a small one(say 8-9BB), would likely take it down unless he already has the straight or is a complete fish.

River bet is fine to me, even could have gone lower given the connecting board. In most cases, he's not calling with much that doesn't beat you besides maybe 2pair.

The bigger question is, why did you just call pre? Such a weak bet from villain, plus you have a PP, plus you're OOP, you need to 3B here.

I like the turn check. You may be ahead but if your not and he raises then you throw away the chance to realize your equity. And there is more combos that have you beat then you would think A10,5As,55,88,1010,99,910s-K10s. And if he is behind he won't have a ton of equity to out right win.

I like the bet otr when he checks turn thats usually a good indicator he doesn't have the straight. And if your planning on calling a bet otr yourself might as well bet just in case he checks back with two pair or something.

Raise the flop bigger, bet more on the river. Rest is fine.

I don't think the turn check is bad.

My play there would be:
3bet on the flop about potsize( the flop is too wet ) and then all the way check/call.
There is no reason to bet the turn.You will almost get called by better hands and worst hands will probably fold.

preflop is fine. flop is fine. turn check is fine. river bet is fine. My guess is he has something like JJ.
