I'm curious what people think about this hand.

This was my very first hand at the table. Check behind or bet on the river? This check from opponent makes no apparent sense if he has trip jacks (wouldn't I raise on 6th with trip aces or a straight?).

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.
