Default Online 40/80 -- checking the river when the straight card comes

Here is another hand in the theme of close river decisions to check or value bet. What do you think of my check?

If you think your opponent will call with any pair then you should bet again. If you think your opponent will never checkraise bluff you in this spot, you should also bet. Betting this river is very opponent dependent for me. In general with no reads I would check behind.
