In my opinion, your actions are not so important in this hand, because the villain will call anyway. He thinks J5 suited is a good hand to watch the flop.
The opponent is the first to bet 1/3 of the pot in the multipot, he doesn't care about the position. This means he will call if you raise.
A good card on the turn for you and a big bet. The villain is calling, so there may be kings or flush-draws in his range. Because many players do not want to fold a flush-draw regardless of the size of the bet.
You have demonstrated a strong hand all the streets and you need to decide whether to bluff or not on the river. Your hand is still good for showdown, but for some reason the opponent check again on the river. Most likely, he does not consider his hand the best. Will he call all in ? is unknown. But you said he was a calling station. Perhaps your bluff would have failed and lost a lot more.

I tend to make more money overall when I bet strongly (with a strong hand) rather than trapping. I've seen way too many really strong hands flip to losing hands on the river. The flop was an excellent opportunity to take control and raise his 1/3 pot donk bet. I think a 3X - 4X raise there followed by a shove on the turn would have been the most likely way to win the most money. You were way ahead on the flop and way, way ahead on the turn. His betting pattern is showing weakness. If he's a calling station you want to put him all-in before that random J falls on the river.
Set mining is good, but each time you do so it costs you chips. So when you flop the set and are playing against a willing villain you want to make it worth all the chips that you lost on the hands where you missed the flops.

well, we almost dealt a cooler on the flop, your opponent has a good flush draw and the pair is not entirely clear, but how he ended up in the hand with J5s, well, maybe he just likes suited cards) on the river, I also like a check from you, because with such a texture of the board, us already despite the fullhouse is already just a bluffcatcher

I think you did this because you believed in your victory. I think almost everyone would do this. On the other hand, it's poker. And here anything can happen. poker hands like this happen, so I'm not entirely surprised.

I would not let this bother you. You said he was a calling player and that's what he did and he got lucky. You played it the best you could and you did not go broke as I have seen other do here. Once the jack hit on the rive you were just dead meat. Well played and just bad run out. Onto the next hand.

I think you could have gone for value already on flop.. on the turn same thinking, in this case the river card was awful and i really liked the check because if you bet and get raised you are on a very bad spot.

I Totally agree with luvpoker.You did not go broke,that is actually a kinda win because you or anyone,could or even should have went all in on the flop or turn and "the guy who calls everything" would have doubled himself up and left you broke or hurt.
