Yeah....checking gives him the option of raising big and to him it looks like you are bluffing as u checked the flop. He would more than likely take a stab at the pot in my opinion. Hope that helps! Good luck at the tables

Check/call the river. Villain is calling with lots of Kx, 9x, Ax, 8x hands that whiffed, and thus has a lot of air in his range. Checking the river gives him a chance to bluff at it with all that air.

Checking the flop is fine, as long as you're intending to check/call instead of check/raise. If you wanted to build a pot, I'd prefer to just bet/bet/bet.

I might have reraised PF, assuming villain calls PF, checked the flop to feign a miss. Prepared at every street to check raise.

Note this is just a slight variation to the bet, bet, bet method.

Thanks for your advices...
I think you are right, ..in fact my most of the time in low limit HUSNG, I prefer to bet bet bet and not to be too tricky ( you have to play against lot of stations ) . But check raising the river or re rasing preflop would have be good too...
