Btw, how come you bet the river if a raise scare you? I prefer check/call if I don't want a raise. Saves me 1 bet

no actually it usually saves you 0 bets. if he has a hand to raise with, he is surely going to bet it and you are usually going to lose against the hands he'd raise.

however many hands fall into the category that he will call with but will not bet with. thus you are losing the bet you would earn if he called with a worse hand.

value betting the river in a nutshell basically
