this was sort of my first thought, would you ever check back the turn w/ 2 pair+? probably not at least in his mind.
you bet the river on a perceived brick to your draw then he over bet raises the pot? What hands does he expect you to be able to call this sizing with?
It would seem you shouldn't be able to call this bet, hence his line is fos. But you say he is very good and the two of you have history so I guess it comes down to how he interprets what you think of him.
Strange hand, the 3 changes nothing in my opinion. Either your J's good or it isn't. I don't see a really good player bluffing $800 here in a spot where 1/4 of that amount accomplishes the same thing. You should never be able to call so I'd assume he's trying to level you into some sort of hero call.
I'd give him credit for Tx and move along based on op.
