I think the turn was perfect for a B/F looking back at the hand. Given the texture or the board and only holdinf Thi I checked behind on the river. I didnt see a bet forcing out a better hand.

I'll fire on the river, you can still fold out spade draws

I also like checking the turn

If you bet the turn, I think you should bet the river. Players like this are often going to have hands like KJ, QT that they will call the turn with just trying to hit a pair.

I also think checking the turn is fine because you probably aren't really folding out many better hands, re part 1 of my post.
