BB is average player.
SB is the villain in this hand. He is ahead in this tight game and is a strong player postflop. I have seen him play pocket pairs several times against preflop raises. What hands do you think he calls with from the SB?

I plan to check/fold the river unimproved. Do you bet again on the turn?

As always, its player specific, but against typical players you could do a lot worse than firing another shell on the turn. You may get someone to fold a small pkt pair or a piece of the board. If you are behind you could easily have 10 outs. Plus if you don't improve on the river you can check behind with the nut no pair.
