However, if there was a lot more money behind, like $600+, then you have to figure out the best way to get the rest of the money in, and that might include checking, depending on the other players in the hand, Hero's image, etc. I would almost always bet, but it depends.
I agree, sounds like he should have bet but who knows. Two guys calling you down to the river with no re-raises, third club comes on the river, one guy acting hyper-agressive in the last position all kind of points towards a bluff bet from the last spot. Plus maybe he didn't want to scare anyone off the hand, maybe he didn't want to discourage a bluff, maybe he thought they weren't flushing or maybe he was just an idiot. Who knows, at a cash game I would have put all my money in, but it depends.
