BB checks, Hero ?

Easy question for you, guys: should I value-bet this turn against the guy with 20/4/0.6 stats (40 hands)? Or it`s better to check for pot-control?

I am only going for 1 more street of value. Turn is good if you think he may have called with air. This is more likely a pocketpair though so I would wait for the river.

bet 7.

bet 7 check river. you only have tpmk and overs are dangerous. you have a choice to bet now or bet river, and betting now is def best so as to protect your hand. if you had a pair of Ks instead i'd lean towards checking turn and betting or calling river.

doesn't a check behind on the turn invite villain to (bluff-)bet on the river? that would leave us in a pretty tough spot. i'd go with the bet turn-line.

That would be pretty awesome, unfortunately it doesn´t happen that often. So I like a turn bet for the added protection.
