I would have preferred an all-in raise on the turn if you thought your hand was good. Jerry is playing this hand very unusually though, betting the turn after you raised the flop... that's always a confusing play. It's possible he improved to two pair on the turn, but I doubt he has Kings-up. The only hand I'd be worried about is a very oddly-played set.

You may be right, I should have pushed on the turn. That's a big problem with my game I think, I get very passive post-flop unless I have the nuts. This is a normal fold for me with top pair and a weakish kicker, but I impressed myself somewhat by taking my time and analyzing the betting from the beginning of the hand. His bets were so unusual that I decided to push. He mucked and I never saw his hand.
