100/200 69s on the button
 
Pokerstars 5 handed 100/200 against some guys I don't know that much about. Game is typical overaggressive.
I raise 6h9h on the button- I'm not an aggressive button stealer so this is an abnormally weak hand for me. Small blind 3 bets, big blind caps. I call.
Flop Q86 rainbow with one heart. They both check. I bet, they both call.
Turn is an ace, I don't recall if it brings a flush draw. They both check. My action?

I check behind on the turn pretty sure I'm behind but likely drawing to 5 outs and I don't think I pay off unimproved. I also fold to the cap preflop.

Is a call when its capped back to you preflop really the way to go?

On the turn I'd go for the bet/fold.

I think you're going to get c/r on the turn almost every time.

At about 8:1 I bet and try to take down the pot here. If checkraised, I make a crying call and pray for a 6 or 9.

Sure is risky of AK, AJ to to give the free card here, no?

This is the real heart of the matter. The ace is a big scare card. If either of my opponents had AK, they would be out the turn. Same might be true of AJ, although it is possible AJ would fold the Q high flop. If I'm getting checkraised, I think it is because someone has a monster and I don't mind folding to the checkraise. I think their checks are a definite sign that they have basically nothing or basically everything. I don't think I'll get called down by a pocket pair like TT. So I bet the turn.

Any read on BB? That flop check is suspicious, especially if he is an aggressive player.

There really aren't any players on the planet that can check there and not have it look suspicious.
