Default Re: Check behind with aces?

Wouldn't the decision largely rest on where this guy came in from? If he limped in first, he is probably more likely on a straight draw. Of course, you could be facing AQo or KQo that just hit trips and is trying to check raise.

I agree that you aren't hurt by forcing the villian to whiff on his check-raise and then calling down unimproved.

Unimproved doesn't this become a classic SSHE river bet that you have to call even though you "know" that you have the second best hand? At that point I think the pot is big enough that it's worth one more for the few times that villian bets the river on a bluff after showing strength early then missing his draw.
