BET/CALL VS CHECK/CALL

I usually go for the check/call or bet/fold.
When are we supposed to bet/call our hands when oop? Do you guys have any example where the
bet/call is the better option than check/call?

I'd say bet/fold should be viewed as an alternative to check/call, btw i guess in "Mathematics of poker" there was an idea that bet/fold line should be very close to check/call in terms of EV as soon as we are playing vs a competent opponent that is betting optimally if we check otr, making our call more or less breakeven. In practice however i'd say you should incline to bet/fold play more thinly for value vs weaker and more passive opponents - because they are not capable of bluffing raising well vs your bet and also they are not going to make enough bluffs if you check in order to check/call line to be better, However if you play vs aggro opponents , or those who you have a feeling try to outplay you , i'd go for check/call more often (because you will hate getting raised with hands like TP, not knowing what to do), and with your stronger part of the range it becomes easier to play bet/call as soon as you will see them making weird aggro bluffs. But that's more of an exploitative approach and depends on how reliable is your info on your opponent.
