I dont see any reason to not bet. I do see one reason to not check the turn. You dont want to gove any free cards. There is a draw on board. If he's not on that draw, he;ll probably pay you off with a worse A.

Against a donkey calling station you have two options:

1) Bet the pot on every street.

2) Mix in a 2/3 pot bet here and there with your pot bets.
