He is going to push the turn when you check to him 100% of the time unless he has a hand like a set of aces.

i agree he's pretty likely to push the turn, which is why i hate a flop push. if i decide my hand is good, why should i let him get away from J8 or whatever? i think the three acceptable lines are

- fold
- call, check/fold turn
- call, check/call turn

if i decide i'm going broke against a good hand, i want to maximize my chance of busting a bad one. i don't think there are many free cards that hurt, and if he does check behind a hand like Jx on the turn, he'll pay off a bet on the river.
