Yes I would bet the turn. And probably the river depending on the card/players. This looks like a board that 1/2 passives call with ace-high and bottom pair enough for it to be for value.

But if I bet the turn, will they call the river bet with weak hands?

Tough to say, but I think they will. It's pretty clear that nobody has a ten, and also I think a safe assumption that nobody has a seven either. But there are a few straight draws that you'll be able to pry some value out of with a bet here, so do so.

Don't you agree I'm likely calling or checking the river here? There are many, many cards that can come to disappoint me.

Depends on the card, like I said. Sure, something like the A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] you won't really be thrilled with betting, but that ten IMO is a card worth a value bet. But with your position you have the upper hand in this decision, as you see.

Will it matter? You've already collected money from them on the turn. If they call a second time, it's icing on the cake.

I think this is an excellent point. I was just about to advocate checking the turn until I read this, so thanks, Aaron.

I think you're ahead on the turn, so even though there are many bad cards that come on the river, getting a Ax, KJ, etc to fold to your bet now is great. And if they call your bet that's not too bad either.
