Default Excuse me sir...Please check your straight flush...Thank you...

I was at lucky chances last night playing some 3/6 with some bitter folks, as per usualy at 4am at Lucky chances...

Im getting sleepy so i limp UTG with Js9s and everyone else limps (6 handed, all loose/passive).

Flop: Ts 7s 4c
i bet and get called by SB

Turn: 8s
Woohoo, check/bet/call

River: x
check/bet/call

So i turn my hand over and everyone and two people at the table tell me that i should have checked through on the turn...I think this is interesting so i ask why, they tell me that i should check through in case my opponent also has a straight flush draw so that we can get the jackpot, interesting...Apparently, the SB had a gutshot straight flush draw, which i think was not the case cuz she probably would have called me down playing the board. So im confused and would like someone to explain to me why i should check, they actually ask the dealer to explain why they are suggesting this, and he does, but then tells me that he wouldn't check...

Oh, well...I just thought it was weird...
