Check the turn, take the free card.

Clearly I'm a total toolbox for suggesting Hero take a free card on the turn and catch a spade. But isn't it conceivable that BB, a new player whom we have to assume is a typical Party loser, would probably be betting out into the field with a K, albeit a weak king? Hero's raise forced this fish into check-call mode. Hero is now betting BB's king for him. Sure, there's a good chance MPTK is the best hand out there, in which case Hero should bet the turn for value. But *if* he's drawing to a flush or one of his 5 outs, why not take a free river card -- if it's favorable, someone else might bet into him and he can get 2BB in on the river.
