Party 5/10 5 handed I get black queens on the button.

BB is a 5/10 Preflop lag with fairly unimaginative passive postflop play....again standard 5/10er it seems.

Folded to me I raise, SB folds, BB 3 bets, I cap, BB calls.

Flop is
AhKs9s
BB checks, I bet, BB calls.

Turn is Ts
BB checks, I bet, BB calls.

River is blank
BB checks, I check.

So does BB call the flop and turn with anything I beat, probably not, I check this turn for the free card to hopefully pick up the second nut flush, sound good?

seems like a great place to check behind the turn

(1) you're probably behind
(2) you don't like getting checkraised!
- you have 14 outs to 2nd nut flush, nut straight, or trip queens
- board could have hit opponents hand in many ways
- easier to get to showdown HU
- if you're ahead, free card doesn't really hurt you

I check the turn as well, probably call a river bet even if I miss the flush (could be something like 88 or JJ).
