River decision with top pair 5-10
 

Don't have exact stats on the guy but my read is he's a calling station. He was playing 1 table I think and I haven't played with him before.

effective stacks are $798 on the river.

My only two options are betting and check/folding. I am not sure which is the better decision.

if he's a station...then betting is obv better

bet half pot or something and fold to shove

320 fold to a shove

since he's a station i might try to charge him more on the turn, like 200ish. he'll probably pay it if he's on a draw. i'd bet like 275 and fold.
