However, if that's the case, we can't check/call the river too. We have to fold if he bets the river, too. We'll almost never see a river bet from a hand we beat.

Bet/folding is good because it gives us fold equity for the times he has JJ. It also means we only put in 1 bet when way behind.

I think I agree with the fact that he isn't betting a hand we beat on the river, so I think I like the check-fold on the river.

But if that's our plan, Isn't a check/call better than a bet/fold because it gives us a chance to hit our outs (not to mention a small possibility of a free showdown)? In both cases we are only putting in 1 bet.

I don't think you have very much fold equity with a turn bet, because I think we're behind to so many possible combinations of hands that won't fold, and I don't even think JJ will fold very often at all either.
