Villain is unknown, but he paused for a bit before calling my 3-bet on 4th street, whatever that's worth. Anyways, what's my action on the river?

Check/call.
AQ/KQ are the obvious hands, but it's 5 handed and your opponent is unknown. JJ/TT and lots of other crap wouldn't surprise me. Bet/fold or bet/call is kind of sexy because the hands you beat check behind, but I'm not comfortable putting in more than one bet here to show it down.

I check-call it. There isn't much value in betting since he will mostly fold pps less than jacks. I think the only hand that would call if we bet is KQ. QJ probably doesn't raise UTG.

Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

I'd check/call.
This has the advantage of minimising losses and maybe inducing bets from worse hands (bluffs).
It becomes pretty transparent that u dont like the A, but u aint folding so no problem there. If u bet, u may have to call a raise in a tough spot.

For the right to be governed, waste them without mercy.

Against unknown c/c seems best.

u cant bet cos ull get priced out if he raises. if u bet ur not getting called without the opp having at least 2pr or the ace so u may aswell close ur eyes and check/call.
