this is very weird to me.... his flop raise along with his turn check

you can bet or i like checking behind and calling a bet on the river unless its the straight AND flush card. Checking the turn invites any number of hands to give their last shot at winning the hand on the river by betting. This is the type of hand i usually do this on... one where i'm not sure where i'm at and would fold to a raise so i call the amount i would have bet on the turn.

dunno, sounds right to me. please refute.
