Yes I think so. Especially because the BB called two on the flop and pops up on the turn. He probably has A7 or something like that.

How about a check/call on the turn? You would get to see the river card for the same amount you paid to bet/fold.

Don't you want money from some goofy T or 7?

I have to same chance as the T or 7 to improve my hand but am behind to the Ax player.

I think the best chance I have to win this pot is by seeing the river card cheap. The only way I can do that is by check/calling. My preferred way of playing is betting or raising. I just don't think that is correct here. It wouldn't surprise me if others thought I am wrong here as well.

Checking is terrible. What makes you think the BB has an ace? Why do you want to see the river cheap when it's very likely you have the best hand? I just don't understand why you think you're behind just because an ace came on the turn. Checking because of this is weak IMO.

No you don't, you only have 2 cards to improve your hand, whereas they have 5.
