Default 20-40...Would You Ever Check This River?

20-40 at the Taj. I have J10o in the cutoff. 3 players limp, I limp and the button raises. The SB folds, BB calls. All others call. 6 players for 2 bets each. Flop comes 8-9-3, no suits. Check to me, I check (I don't want to bet and get raised, shutting others out). Surprisingly the button also checks. The turn is an offsuit queen to give me the straight. Check to me, I bet. The button calls. Now the BB checkraises. Folded back to me and I make it 120. The button seems confused (not an act) and coldcalls the 80. The BB just calls. The river is another 8 to pair the board. BB now checks. I have the button to act behind me and, with the BB not capping the turn...it's tough to put him on the straight. More likely a set. Of course he could have some other BS. But my question is...would u ever check in this spot? Or is this a clear situation where your hand is too good to check?

Thanks,
Jeff
