Should I go broke on the River due lower straight?
In my opinion, he had just Ace High till the river but with 3 overcards, I decided to check/fold all the way. In my mind the voices said ''No push this round fella''

nh, A high is a big part of his range.
Kinda suspicious that he suddenly bets when any A would have a straight here :P

I have no problem folding this hand right now.

On the flop you have exactly potsized stack which is a clear push for me after his check, because this flop is perfect to make a bluff and the villain will probably fold second or bottom pair most of the time.

As played, I would definitely call or push river if I was first to act. From my experience every straight, specially when HU is good enough to go broke with at this limit.

I completely agree with burek2000 on both flop and river
