Questions about limit play

[BigSoti]

Hi Guys, was playing a bit of Limit Hold em this morning which is unusal for me as I normally play NL cash games. The following hand occured and I'm wondering what the regualr Limit players on here make of the way I played it and whether or not I got maximum value from the hand.

Cheers

Why on earth would you check the river?

[BigSoti]

I was scared that someone might have made the straight on the river.

Surely in limit any made straight would bet the river rather than check it to you?

[Karabiner]

I don't mind just just calling the second raise as opposed to capping pre-flop.

But I would deffo bet the river for value with one customer let alone two.

[doubleup]

When the pot is this big in limit it is virtually certain that you will get called by a worse hand - so you have to bet the river, ppl make crying calls in limit all the time.

You should bet this river, in this situation, approximately 100% of the time.
