Good question

It's such a spewy bet, and i should have put him all in if i was going to bet anyway. I put him on a diamond draw or an ace so i figured that two pair was the best hand.

His play isn't even that bad, considering the draws that he had, i'm just annoyed that I lost the hand

Shove the river. You'd give him like 5:1 odds so he'll call with alot of worse hands.
