$12 HT J8o flopped straight

Villain is a multitabling reg, not sure if he is winning. He is minbetting middle-high flushdraws but also trips on dry boards. I aslo caught him slow playing Full Houses and bluffing missed draws big on river.

WPN, $12 Buy-in (10/20 blinds) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 2 Players
Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite.

Hero (BB): 460 (23 bb)
SB: 540 (27 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 8 of diamonds J of hearts
SB completes, Hero checks

This guy limps about 44%, l/c 42%, l/f 58% @127 hands. 3x-isolating with J8o anyone?
 

Flop: (40) 9 of diamonds Q of hearts T of spades (2 players)
Hero checks, SB bets 20, Hero raises to 80, SB calls 60

Since he is betting the flop about 45% my plan is to checkraise the flop big for pot building. I see him calling almost any Pair along with some gutshots or OESDs
 

Turn: (200) J of spades (2 players)
Hero checks, SB bets 100, Hero calls 100

now that the board gets more connected I won't lead the turn because 1: I think a reg is aware enough to fold anything less than 2pair. 2: If he raises I think I might have to fold but I really don't like to fold here 3: If he calls he can still slowplay me and I might get slow rolled until the river where I'll broke. I think the best play would have been to checkraise All In here because I see him betting worse hands than 2nd nuts and he has to pay off with combodraws or 2pair imo

River: (400) 9 of spades (2 players)
Hero checks, SB bets 340 and is all-in, Hero folds

He got me. river card is so bad that I see nothing more than checkfold, even though I think he now took advantage of position when he turned hands like QJ, QT into a bluff.
 

Results: 400 pot
Final Board: 9 of diamonds Q of hearts T of spades J of spades 9 of spades
Hero mucked 8 of diamonds J of hearts and lost (-200 net)
SB mucked and won 400 (200 net)
