Check-fold would be terrible. When the board pairs and you check, a typical opponent is bluffing way more than 1/12 of the time.

It requires him to have a hand that is behind and it requires him to be aggro enough to bet it.

Both opponents were describes as tight-passive.

I´m not saying check-fold should be routine anyway, as your are showing a fair amount of weakness here, but I would never overcall here and if the first guy bets then, asuming he was passive, you can probably fold as he wont bluff into 2 players.

I would fold if there was a bet and a call to me.

Hi Kurn and Trix.

What do you think of the play leading up to the river? Standard aggression or a little too laggish?
