This all just depends on your image... I would bet the turn again because I generally have an image which is bordering on maniacal and that gets me action.

But either way, if you want to build the pot you have to bet, and betting the turn smells more like 66-KK than an A, letting alone a full house, because people loooove their slowplay at this level.

Bet the turn and hope he has trips. In such a small pot your aim should not be to make a little bit of value against weak hands. It should be to stack strong second best hands.

Just keep repeating "You don't check for value, you don't check for value".

Yeah you have to bet this turn, he could well be slowplaying Ax, 55, 44, 32 all of which you crush.

I would make a pot sized bet with KK-TT here also, and you might get a call from those type of hands.

Given the turn the raise on the river looks fine.

Checking this turn through is criminal.

The turn check is not good at all. Surely you want to play a big pot when you make a huge hand, and checking the turn makes it very difficult to get all the money in in an unraised pot.

Bet the turn. From villain's perspective that ace didn't change anything.

Bet the turn.

River raise is fine.

I would make a small bet on the turn.
