200NL with JJ, is this a clear fold?

$1-$2 NLH, 9-max.
Hero ($225) in BB
Villain (~$250) UTG+2
Preflop: Fold, Villain calls $2, folded to SB who calls $1, Hero in BB raises to $6 with Js Jh, Villain calls $4, SB folds.
Flop: Jd 10h 2h
Hero bets $6.5 (1/2 pot), Villain calls $6.5.
Turn: Kh
Hero bets $16, Villain calls $16.
River: As
Hero checks, Villain bets $57 (pot size), Hero folds.
Is this just a nasty runout? Do I check the turn and check-call the river? The Jack of hearts doesn't really block anything and I can't beat hardly anything -- losing to any Q, any two hearts, etc. Maybe I beat Ah-x? What an annoying hand.

Isolate bigger pre imo
bet flop much bigger
think turn is closer to a bet vs fish
nice river play

we're losing value by just betting 1/2 pot on the flop vs fish
we should bet 3/4 pot on flop and turn and c/f river
