Auto value bet on river?

On the flop, I check and plan to fold unless button bets, which happens here.

Think this is too weak with top pair. U seem to be a bit cautious in ur thinking over all. Top pair is a pretty good hand.

The river is unlikely to have helped ur opp. His most likely holdings are a K or a Q or a busted draw like JT. If he has a busted draw u should check, if he holds a Q u should bet. In case of a K it doesn't matter what u do. Since there are so few possible draws I like to bet here. Most players are too passive, meaning u have a much better chance of beeing called by a weaker hand than that he would bet a weaker hand.
