I am still not entirley sure what he was trying to acheive with his river shove and with the strange calls on the flop/turn. I imagine he must have thought his hand was good! i have no idea, i can't relate to someone who limps with junk like that and then calls 2 streets in a redic position.
I am still satisfied that, having no read on the chap, that my fold was not that terribad. People do overshove with the nuts here sometimes. And as you can see i didnt have a clue where i was. Even if i lead the river, he could still make this redic shove. So i think c/c was the right policy. Its just arguable whether you want to call off your whole stack early in a dym.(yes i know i had a big hand but there were still several full houses out there!) If you get it wrong you lose a fiver. If you fold you can still win a fiver (and i did)
You final sentence answers my question - ie, you cashed - job done.
Whilst I probably would have value bet the river and called if oppo had shoved (reluctantly), I agree that in level 1 of a dym, as played, it's the one format of the game in which your play is totally understandable. Ideally in a DYM, you never want to be calling all in at any point, and don't need to imo
