calling river but I think the most important thing to point out is that your reasoning for the flop check is bad. you need to consider how your actions play out against his range of hands, so merely assigning a few combos against which a flop cr may be better than the standard bet/bet/bet line isn't a good justification for the play.
this is not to say checking is bad. if you don't intent to cbet this board 100% and want to check strong hands a small % of the time for balance, if you think an he'll barrel way too much when you check, if you think he folds way too much to a cbet, etc are all perfectly reasonable reasons to check here - but again the key point is that your considering how your actions work against his entire range as opposed to just cherry picking certain hands he can have and taking the best line against them.
