I'm checking this with the intention of calling if it's one bet back to me.

SB's checkraise on the turn is so damn suspicious. I'm checking the river.

I would bet the river. The turn raise and river check, look like a really bad semi-bluff to me. Also, it is not likely that he is 3-betting PF with a hand containing a 7 or 22 or 55. All you really have to fear is JJ and he is unlikely to check that because you have given no indication you will bet the river.

I ended up checking and it got checked through. SB had As5s for a semi-bluff, as you predicted, and I took it down.
