I think betting the turn makes the hand easier to play but isn't optimal

because we can easily fold to a raise and he folds a lot of hands that we beat that he may bet on the river

I would like a turn bet to get hands with a single spade off. Once you checked the turn he was probably going to bet the river no matter what, so it's an auto river call (Not to mention the pot odds for calling). Although I would prefer a turn bet, what you did was okay also.

Jesus, bet turn. If he has a flush, you guys are going to call the river anyways. So either way, you are going to lose one bet no matter what if has a flush. Go for max value and bet turn and river. Alot of weak aces are going to call 3 bets as long as you don't shove river. Only reason why you want to check turn is that if you think he would do tricky bluffs
