But he will also check/fold some underpairs to a J or Q turn.

So you're saying you'll check the flop and then bet a J/Q non-club turn?

Absolutely. I already stated my prefered line is to check the flop and shove the turn or call his turn shove. Either way, I know in advance that all of the $ is going in by the turn.
Although I may check a turn club or A, but then it doesn't really matter.

BUT if you are calling the turn shove, you are putting in your money as a big dog (to any pair +). On the one hand, you do pick off more bluffs on the turn, but you only leave yourself drawing to 1 card if the turn bricks. I guess what I am trying to get my head around is this dilemma:
is it better to shove flop and get to see all the cards with our huge drawing hand OR do what you suggest (check & call/shove turn) OR check flop and fold turn to a shove if it bricks

How will we be drawing to 1 card? I already did the math to demonstrate that so long as we are committed to the pot on the flop no matter what the turn is, and that villain will bluff the turn with any frequency whatsoever, we are +EV to check the flop and call/shove any turn. Specifically, it is the +EV of shoving the flop plus extra depending on how much he bluffs.
