Default Re: 99 overpair out of position on $100NL 6max

However if you check the turn, you are giving the hand away, and he might well be taking advantage of that and forcing you to fold if he puts in a well sized bet

It is true that checking exposes you to the possibility of being forced to fold the best hand. However, a "tricky" player is a lot more likely to bluff/semi-bluff with a hand you are beating so you do not have to automatically fold to a bet. Also, betting out on the turn bloats the pot which is not usually a good thing when you have a mediocre hand.
