Check on the flop was fine with so many limpers. I would call his bet in this spot. On the turn, you may even check again hoping for another bet. I think betting out on the turn scares away hands that will pay you off.

Your options, of course, depend on how agressive your opponent is and how coordinated the board is.

There's a slight chance of a straight draw when the turn comes, but not something I think is going to bust me very often.

I would check raise all in on the flop. I like your line though since it traps a J to call you down. A smaller bet on the turn may have been better.

I check raise all in on the flop.

Giving the free card and then betting either a) Incorrectly leads them to believe you've hit two pair on the turn and they fold. or b) Lets them hit two pair on the turn and beat you.

I hope you are not implying that you would do anything else with few limpers...

But to the OP...definitely check raise allin, as you will get paid off by JX.

I think this is a spot where betting out might be ok, but I like the CR.
