Why wouldn't you bet the turn? Put your opponent on a range of hands and it should be obvious that you are most likely ahead on the turn, the board is coordinated so you must protect your hand and your bet will also be for value. Checking is a horrible mistake.

edit: I wouldn't fold that KTs in a 20+2, but if you have these kinds of problems postflop, limping is probably -EV for you.

I put him on a flush draw when he bet and called my raise, then when the flush came I had to assume he had it. So you think a small probe bet would be the right idea? or would you bet for value there??
