I bet pot on the flop to not give him correct odds to draw to a flush - villains range is large so he could have any old crap - but nothing too crap as I've been playing very tight (my vpip was 17, pfr 14).

Turn is a blank, so I check. I think this is a bad move, as basically if he does have a flush draw, I'm letting him get a free card. His pot sized bet scares me - and I add extra time to think. What should I do here?

I checked and the river is Jh. Was my river check good?
