Playing A-little when you hit the A

[fluffhead]

I think this is an easy bet on the turn. You may or may not have the best hand but people at lower limits will easily call you down on tthe flop and sometimes even on the turn with middle or bottom pair or pocket pairs like 99 or 77. The last thing you want to do is give those hands a free card. Much easier to bet the turn, with the possibility of winning right there, then check the showdown.
