I don't think you have a full appreciation for just who exploited whom in this hand.
He outplayed you and the deck bailed you out.
And I don't believe for a second you planned to bluff shove the river. Your line here was totally passive until you made the ~nuts. Even your smack talk about implied odds is evidence of no plan other than to call til you caught a miracle.
Sorry I hope I didn't come across as condescending I just don't understand your praise for V. If QTs is near the bottom of my raising range and probably too weak for my 3!/call range then shouldn't my continuing range be heavily weighted towards medium-to-big pocket pairs and AK, AQs type hands?
If that is the case, how is V 3! from the SB with a hand like A5s with no dead money to squeeze a +EV play?
Or stated differently, after three 3!, if V is such a good player, wouldn't he expect an adjustment from me? If I had AA or KK here I would play the hand the exact same way, calling him down until he stopped betting and then betting myself.
Regarding whether I would bluff the river or not, I'm not sure how you can make that assumption.
