To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.

I'd bet the river. Could you explain why you decided to check?

Against tricky aggressive players I don't mind a check on the river. Tptk on that board is the kind of hand I want to showdown for 1 bet on the river.
If I check to Mr. Trickyaggressive he will likely bet (sometimes bluff) and I can call. If I bet he will also often raise and I'll have to call (investing 2 bets).

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.

Anyway, I would bet this river more than not only because opponent did 3-bet preflop. At this point I put villian on AK, AQ, TT, KK, or AA. The only hand here raising is TT and you could fold on river for the 1 bet as well. The other hands will just call you when you bet but bet when you check, and you may even get lucky and find a fold. What you don't want to do is bet and then call a raise so if you can't fold it here to a raise then you should check/call.

I think a couple of you guys misread the hand. The flop aggressor did not raise preflop and the preflop 3-better check/folded.
CO probably has a weaker Queen.
