Against LAGs i bluff-raise the river about 15-20% of the time after a turn check like this...

I really don't like this. A wise old bird once told me that solid players burn through a ton of money trying to outLAG LAGs, and I think he's right. I don't think a LAG ever folds an ace here... it's important to remember that LAGs are bluffed at more than anyone else, and as a consequence frequently turn into calling stations and are not good players to bluff.

Good point. Looking over a ton of hands lately as a result of my downswing (described in my recent post) I noticed that I'm doing this less and less. 15-20% is probably a bit of an exageration. But it is worthy of consideration because pushing him off an ace since the pot is a decent size is a major coup.
