Hmm. Turn check sucks. River call sucks. If you are gonna check the turn behind, prepare to fold the river UI. I'd much rather bet the turn &amp; check behind on the river if I miss, unless of course I have some read that villain is gonna show down a weak A-hi. I don't think you are gonna win this pot very often, not nearly enough to justify your river call.

You don't think him checking behind the turn is going to inspire a bluff ever? If he checks behind he should be more likely to call if anything.

I disagree with the check 100% of the time comment. Often times your opponent will be a on a draw (especially with a board with straight and flush draw possibilities). If i feel he's still drawing, bet it out. If i'm unsure, I check behind.
As far as the river call goes, well thats what seperates the good from the best.

honestly, i can't answer without knowing what "super fish" is. a super fish could be 80/2/.4 or 80/27/1.5.. a big difference. the more aggressive one i would be more inclined to check and call a river bet, the more passive fish i would bet the turn.
