check turn and hope you hit a straight

Seems slightly weak OOP doesn't it. Villain will make a PSB with almost anything because you've waved the white flag. If hero had position, I completely agree.

Betting this flop in position and checking behind on the river is far better than betting it OOP and checking the river.

Man, you and I think so much alike. It's scary.

I think you over play this hand even at this level. By river it's an easy fold.

I think you need a read on the Villian here. Barring that I think you are stuck folding. This could be so many things so I'd like to know if this villian will generally bet when you show weakness if he just paired a 10 or had just one low pair on the flop.

I think a lot of the time you see another Ax, probably higher than yours, not sure though.
