Personally I would check behind on the turn. I don't think there's any worse hands that you can get three streets of value from. Take the pot control line and check behind and then call on the river or bet-fold £6 if checked to. Do you have any reads on the player that they might float you on this type of board?

    i was thinking bet turn and check behind on the river. Would a better line to be check behind turn where we still have a chance to house up pribably only worse hand calling us is a flush draw. I bet to charge the draw but is the chance of that slim enough that a check behind is safer here in the long run?

    EDIT: Name removed, reads on villian has limp called alot and turned up with very marginal hands like 1gappers unsuited that sort of thing, havent seen them raise too much yet but believe at this point with the call on flop a jack is definatly possible kj aj maybe qj or 10j also obivously all the 1 pair hands that i beat to. I bet the river so get value from the 1 pair hands.

    i would probably seek out a timing tell here, most fishes one table and this can be quite helpful i.e if he tanks and then calls i would be concerned and would definitely check turn, as played vs a fish that does not show a lot of aggression i may just give him credit and fold this turn, besides we do have the best seat in the house so chances are if we are better we will get his money sooner or later.

    I like a check on the turn regardless, theres not a lot we can get a great deal of value from.
