I tend toward checking with the intention of calling the one bet. I would lean this way MORE in low limit as there is more of a likelyhood of a player chasing and you just never know when that 4 that hit the river gave them two pair/trips/straight/whatever.
I liken this to the check-in-the-dark in 7 stud when you are sure someone is drawing against you. Why bet into them and charge yourself an extra bet to find out they hit?
Certainly there are times when you would have gained an extra bet, but you never can know ahead of time what percentage of the time you would gain/loose that extra bet (especially at low limits when any two might just do for somone).
