Bet/fold the turn. You obviously think he is slowplaying a big hand, but this could easily be 99-JJ or even KQ/KJ. By not betting you are losing value the times that these call the turn and the river. You are also losing a lot of value against UTG's range which includes a ton of gutshots, kings, and worse aces.

If you are raised it is an easy fold. I don't see what checking the turn gets for you. He's not gonna be bluff-raising here and if he is slowplaying, you will usually be drawing dead. It's not like that free card let's you hit an out or something.

Seems ok. I usually check the flop through and then rattle off a few bet/folds if it's checked to me again.

Yup, I played this one badly. Other than not giving villian the satisfaction of a turn cr, the turn check buys me nothing.

I was finally going to reply to a post - since it hadn't already had 20 replies - but I see that Lmn55d expressed my thoughts better than I would have.
