Default Re: Pocket JJ, Is A on the turn a check behind

This is a spot I have a lot of trouble in and end up being to aggressive I think. I am interested to hear what other people have to say...

I check behind on the turn. I am willing to put in 1 more bet on this hand. If he C/R's me I fold. I think I am beat a large percentage of the time on this turn/board. I could be betting into a made straight, draw that won't fold, Ax, etc.

So I check behind and check/call a river bet. My thinking is most hands I will beat will fold (except draws), and most hands I am losing to will cost me 2-3 more bets. And I can see a lot of people C/Ring with a draw on this board as well. So maybe I can induce a bluff from a weaker hand/missed draw on the river, and win an extra bet I would have lost... and save an extra bet or two when I am beat.
