Bet or try to check raise the river?

Bet and hope he raises, very unlikely that he has a bigger boat here. You really don't want him checking behind with a weakish flush or straight.

Agreed, Im fairly sure hes on a flush draw, most likely the nut flush, just trying to extract the most value, checking the turn and river should get a bet out of the nut flush but most hands will check behind, betting the river I'll get called by hands that beat me, a lone Jack and higher flushes but very unlikely I'll get raised by a worse hand.

RoundTower

Bet, you won't get raised very often and when you do it isn't really good for you, you call but you don't like it. But he is likely enough to call with a flush.

If I checked I would just call a bet, if you check raise you are pretty much never getting called by worse and you didn't give any reads to indicate this wasn't true here.

Also, fold preflop.

but he's got some great quad draws!

Defo bet the end here. You will be called by more hands than he will be willing to value bet

Goodluck2me

value bet river, fold to a substatial raise, (unless for some metagame reasons you want to show this and get action later, which i think do apply at 1-2 somewhat), also i agree with RT fold preflop its a -ev hand for situations exaclty like this, you get under houses too often, and are most often second best.
