Depends. Do you think he's the kind of passive sticky guy to call you down twice and look you up with an A or say TT in that situation?

If yes I would bet under half pot to get a call from those types of hands. If raised big, I fold.

Against aggressive guys I probably would just check the river.

This is the clearest river check back of all time!

Looks like a good river check. I would think it would be difficult for them to have anything worth calling twice, unless they had a "read" that you were an incorrigible bluff. They probably should have bet the river to be honest.

To bet this river, you have to be either incredibly "bluffy" and aggressive or up against the worst calling station ever to get called by worse three streets.

Thin value is one thing, but this is anorectic-level value betting.

Check almost 100%.
