That's of course my first thought. My first thought was, he's trying to push me off a split. But I mean he can definitely have some Tx in his range. In real time I couldn't think of enough bluffs except for KdQd or a freeroll split. The rest of the hands are:
T9s, JTs, KdQd, TT, 66, AA, AK for the bulk of his range.

I'm not sure how often he turns JJ-KK into a bluff, but my read on him was, probably not very often. I dunno... maybe don't bet river? I thought it was a safe bet getting some crying calls and AQ to call.

Sigh fold I guess but maybe river bet is thinner than it seems
