The reason you check the turn is to get him to bet 90-140 chips on the river... right?

Ya that and:
- I don't mind taking a free card with 10 winning outs.
- My flop check loosens his turn calling range up enough that I don't think I have enough FE over hands I'm actually behind to bother betting.
Add em all up and its an easy chck?

Well, you have to be pretty sure he'd bluff at it on the river. Otherwise you are just giving away free cards.
Also, if he has a draw like xxh, A9 or KQ, you might as well value bet the turn before you both miss.
Maybe your flop check encourages crap like 55 to call you on the turn, but if you check then turn and call the river, it's costing you the same anyway.
I'm not saying a check is wrong. It's just not clear to me without a read. Keep in mind that I'm very rusty.
