How is that a good reason to check though? He might as well bet for value and attempt to stop someone from out drawing him to something like two pair...

The board is already paired and there are no overcards. People have 2 outs at most.

They could have 3 outs if they have an ace with lower kicker. Also I could end up splitting the pot with another ace if a K or Q quuen comes on the river.

However, I think the likelihood of someone else having an ace is low.

This particular board is one of the few that I would consider checking on. If there were no pair on board or and straight and flush draws present then giving a free card would be a mistake. It still might be a mistake here, but I don't know. That's why I posted.
