Facing river jam decision

1/3 playing about $350 effective

H: young, just lost two big pots. Been raising a lot preflop
V: on the younger side as well, took half my stack on one of those bigger pots. Showed me one of his cards on the river and it happened to be a bigger flush card on a 4 to a flush board so saved me some money there

Q10o no clubs H in Button vs bb
Button raise 12 called by bb
$25 Flop JT6 two clubs
I bet $15 called pretty quick
$65 turn qx
I bet $30 bb raises to $90 I call
$240 River 6x
Bb insta jams for $200
Hero?

I think you played it fine. You could argue a turn fold, but turn call is fine. Now fold.

Call flop, raise turn is usally strong made hand line, in this case 2p+, so we're only beating JT, splitting QT, and losing to everything else, assuming he folds J6, T6 pre. Given the river jam, feels more polarized, and unlikely to be 2p. And it's conceivable he was fucking around pre and called AA, KK, but those now beat us on the river.

Of course occasionally he's going to show up with worse 2p, or a bluff, but not at a freqency that gives you odds to call here.
