Why do we check the river if we call an all-in bet? Are we trying to induce a bluff?

Yep. Hero's line looks like missed overs/missed spades. Villain should bet quite a few hands after our river check that he would have folded if we bet out. I don't think leading on the river folds any hands that beat us.

Yup. What worse hands are likely to call a 3rd bet? Certainly not a missed FD. Maybe a J, maybe a 10. But since villain is aggro he's more likely to bet these if checked to or desperation bet his missed FD. I can't get away from this, a 2/3 pot blocker prices me in to call for my last few bucks and folds worse hands.
