My apologies for not being able to find the exact details on the relevant hand, but I will give you the gist of a hand between Galfond and Negreanu that I believe will help frame your question better and why a check raise is superior.
Galfond raised cutoff with KKQ7ss, negreanu called btn with 89TJss. Hu to flop. Flop was KJ8dd, neither player has fd. Galfond leads, negreanu calls, turn 3s, no bdnfd. Galfond CHECKS.
It’s in one of the YouTube videos out there and he explained his line of thought that there was about 4spr behind on turn. If he leads, even pot, and is called then he is seeing river oop with an spr between 1-2, and any 7, 9, T, Q, A, or non pairing diamond has him having to check decide and pray he makes the right decision. Instead he can either check jam and deny equity or gii, if negreanu checks back and the river whiffs or pairs he can get value by repping a missed draw. If it completes draws he can check decide and probably bluff catch for much less.
In your shoes the Ace is a tremendous card to check jam on as a lot of players are going to bet their aces up on turn, and you don’t block any Aces... it’s harder applied in the heat of the moment but perfect card to do this on.
