Oops! Sorry, I posted the wrong hand. Let's see if we can find the right one...

Can't find it. Sorry. But it was something like this:

Hero is in BB
Villain is unknown in UTG.

UTG calls. All fold to Hero who check with T6.

Flop is AcQs6s.
Hero bets. UTG calls

Turn is blank
Hero ?

I check and fold against an unknown. The pot is really small and I don't want to spend another 2 BB to see a showdown.

If I had a read that he would call with any hand on the flop I might bet again on the turn.

replace the Q with a blank and maybe bet again, for the most part i dont invest more than a SB in these spots.

I check-fold the turn. If I bet and he calls, I am stuck putting in one more bet on the river because there are so many busted draws he could have that at that point that I want to show my hand down. It sucks to pay two big bets to show down our crappy hand, so I am okay with giving up on the turn especially because when I am ahead, he often has plenty of outs anyway. If I bet, I think he may raise reasonably often in which case I can't call, so I am often just giving this bet away. Really everything about this situation sucks.
