There is also the pre-emptive bet on the river. Checking the river opens things way up for your opponent to hammer the pot in a bluff. If you're willing to call a lower bet on the river, why not strike first? You have a decent chance of it representing a value-bet bluff and could take it down right there.

I'm not a big fan of the river bet. I don't think that their are many hands that would have called to this point that would fold to a bet on the river. I also can't think of many hands that would bluff the river, QJ and J10 are both probably content to simply check behind.
