A river raise/fold

Pretty standard? Thoughts on the turn check behind?

In the games I play in, I'm just calling that river bet without a boat because it's either crap or Tx+ (more likely ++)

Yeah agreed with Fnord. In general, river overbets are with the nuts or total bluffs. You have a hand that is ahead of bluffs and behind the nuts, so you should just call. If it was a smaller bet like 2/3 pot a river raise would be more practical, and folding to the push is standard against any reasonable opponent. The preflop call is kind of iffy, I make those calls occasionally against very predictable tags or against players who I have lots of history with and will pay me off if I hit a hand or a draw.

Preflop sucks. I'd just call river. As played, turn check is standard (betting turns your hand into a bluff), and river fold is standard, assuming no reads.
