* If i check to him he will probably bet his missed hands. And looking at the flop, it should be likely he missed. I still don't want to put myself in a difficult turn decision so i c/r all-in. Besides the fact that I might get called by a weaker pair I think there is also a decent chance he can lay down a weak Q. AQ/KQ/QJ unlikely because he didn't raise preflop.

My conclusion was that if he has some kind of hand we'll probably end up all-in anyway, but if i check I will win an extra bet the times when he didn't hit the flop when he would have folded had I bet into him.

The problem with the check-raise all in is that HE gets to decide if it is worth calling off most his chips, which he most likely won't do without a hand that beats you or at least has a ton of outs against you. If you bet, he can push thinking he has fold equity against your c-bet range, which I assume is normally pretty wide.

It does suck if he just calls here, but given stack sizes I think he'll fold or push more often than he call.
