Looks good to me. Keep the pot small. Too many straight and 2 pair possibilities to inflate this with.

Surely worth another bet on the turn, no?

I like the turn check thru to control the size of the pot. It also helps to induce a bluff on the end by villian. However, Im not really sure if I call here all the time, but I do a majority of the time.

Yeah I didn't feel the need to bloat the pot on this board. With the river call I felt like this was one of the situations where you are getting the worst of it a lot, folding and getting bluffed or calling and being behind, a bigger bet may have had me folding.
