Yes, because I don't think you are gonna get called by that many hands. JT would have raised you on the turn probably, this particular hand looks like a flush draw. This looks like a perfect place to induce a bluff. I like it.

[cornell2005]

yea, perfect place to induce bluff

Any answer that doesn't include "It depends on the opponent" is clearly wrong. And it should also depend on your own table image.

Against those idiots who I have seen call 3 pot-sized bets with bottom pair, I would bet out every time. Against some of the overaggressive players, I would have check-called the turn and then checked the river as well.

But I'll agree, against a completely unknown player, a check to induce a bluff is the play I would make the highest percentage (though not all) of the time in this specific case.
