Check it down or bet it out??

No one thinks it's wrong to get Villain off a middle King here? I'm betting somewhere.

I agree a bet on turn if villain checks twice would be a good line, but not on flop as I think the EV has to be negative since the check behind on the flop gives a chance for the inside straight to hero. Any reason why bet on flop would be good/positive EV?

I wasn't necessarily endorsing a flop bet - just a bet somewhere - But maybe because any 2 can take a shot at you anywhere after the flop check and you can't call.

after the check on the turn take a stab at the pot

Hero has invested $30 with good PF cards that have turned horribly ugly. Who cares about the $100 in the pot? If your hand is best, you'll take it at the end, cause who's gonna bet into you if they can't beat your QQ? That board is just as scary to someone that can't beat QQ as it is to you!

Your hand is worthless after that flop. Treat it as such. If you pick up the Jack, congratulations, bet out then. But until I see a Jack fall off, after that flop, I'm not investing one more dollar.

You can bet the flop, and if you get called, bet the turn. Make them think you have AA or a str8 or whatever. Just remember, you are bluffing. Any fire back at you and that's it.

Once you check the flop, you can't bet the turn, because all weak aces, and some kings will call now.

All in all, I'd say mix it up. Bet out about 15%, check/fold about 85%.

A pre flop raise to $65 takes care of many of your problems.
