I prefer check/call on the river. Let's him bluff a missed flush draw or 87.

Meh, he was chasing and didn't hit so he isn't calling anything. I like checking to see if he will bluff at it. Next time thorw out a $10 bet on the turn.

Why $10? If he's drawing he is correct to call that.

Edit: oops, this is wrong, my bad.

Pot is $29 and he is getting 2.9-1 on a 4.1-1 draw. What am I missing here? I am assuming no implied odds becuase I am check/folding if the flush hits.

If you're going to lead at the flop(and you should), make a real bet. What hand do you put him on to make value betting appropriate, I don't see any worse hands that could call. He either missed his flush draw or has the K. This entire hand is badly misplayed. Your opportunity for value-betting was on the turn. JMO
