I think its fine until the river where I like a bet of about 50. If you check hes going to check what you beat and bet what you dont. You cant extract a bluff here from missed clubs because it looks like you are committed to showdown after check-calling the ace on the turn. Hands worse than yours definitely wont value bet b/c he puts you on the hand you have when you check/call turn.

At the same time I think you are ahead a lot of the time here against hands that will call a blocking bet- mid pocket pair or Ax making a loose call on the flop.
Back to the missed flush draw scenario- in that case we aren't getting a call but I would rather bet against these hands b/c if he is ballsy enough to run a big bluff on the river, I don't think you can call b/c of what I said earlier about him knowing where you are at- it is a straight or flopped set ALMOST everytime.

/end ramble, I like a block bet on the river.

i like the check on the turn cuz a lot of hands will bet that scare card. preflop/flop standard.
