A point that is lost on many people, but touched on here is that if have a decent (but not the nuts) hand on the river and are pretty positive your opponent holds a busted drawing hand, you shouldn't bet. If he holds a busted draw, this should only result in a fold, which gets you nothing more than if you checked. Checking at least gives the possiblity that they will try to steal on the river, which gives you more money.
